iPads and Printing

If you are having trouble printing on your iPad – AND other students **can** print – here are some things to check:

Step One:

Correct printer?

Are you printing to the correct printer? A surprising number of students stand by one printer while their documents is being printed in the other building.

Step Two:

Bump your Network.

This is more than just turning your Wi-Fi off and then on. You want your iPad to “forget” the MDS-student network, then reconnect it. This often clears the decks and allows your ipad to find the printer.

Powerschool vs Powerschool Learning apps

**THIS** is the app to use to access the MDS LMS

There are two powerschool apps on your ipad:
Powerschool Learning, used to access the LMS, and
Powerschool, used to check grades and such.

Make sure you are using the correct app!

NOTES:

  • You can also access the LMS by opening a web browser [Chrome, for example] and surfing to LMS.mountdesales.net
  • Access to Grades are blocked during the school day. Access is opened back up around 3:00 pm.
Powerschool Mobile – used to check grades, but NOT during the school day
