Switch locations when you travel

Some organizations run HP Insights in more than one region, for example one in the US and one in Europe. If yours does, you can switch which region you print to when you travel, without installing anything new. This also keeps print data in the region where you're working.

Before you begin

  • Your IT team has set up location switching for your computer. If you don't see Switch Location in the app, it isn't set up for you.
  • Location switching isn't available with Print Scout 8.1 or later. If you're not sure which version you have, ask your IT team.

What changes when you switch

  • Each location is completely separate. Jobs you sent in one location aren't visible in another.
  • You need to sign in again after you switch.

Switch to another location

Open the HP Secure Print desktop app

  • macOS: select the HP Secure Print desktop app icon in the menu bar.

Choose your location

Under Switch Location, select the location you're printing from.

Sign in again

Each location is separate, so sign in again when you're asked. Then print as usual.

NoteSwitching locations is different from changing your data privacy region. To choose the region where your documents are stored, see Change your data privacy region.
