PrinterLogic - First-time Setup

Set up PrinterLogic for first-time use.

Setting up PrinterLogic

1. First, check to see whether the PrinterLogic utility is already installed – this will be installed automatically on many machines, but not all. To do that, open your list of icons in your system tray on the bottom right and look for the little printer icon.

If it’s there, continue to step 2. If not, you’ll need to contact your IT Pro at aces-it-help@illinois.edu or ds-ccsg@illinois.edu. In the subject line, mention that you need the PrinterLogic client installed.

2. With the client installed, either click that icon or open your favorite browser and head to https://printerlogic.illinois.edu

3. When you open the webpage for the first time, it should prompt you to install the browser extension. Click the Install button.
