Setting up a printer using PrinterLogic

Divisional copiers and printers are managed and installed on Windows computers using PrinterLogic. Access PrinterLogic by navigating to printers.sle.msu.edu and following the steps for any of these browsers:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Microsoft Edge 

Before you begin, find out the name of the printer you would like to print to. The name is usually listed on a label affixed to the device.

The first time you use PrinterLogic in each browser, you may need to add and enable an "extension."
