# Creality HI setup: Enable SimplyPrint support

# Creality HI setup: Enable SimplyPrint support
To connect your Creality HI printer with SimplyPrint, a small configuration change is needed.

## Step 1 – Enable root access on the printer
On the printer’s screen, go into **Settings** and enable **Root access**.
When enabled, the printer will show the SSH login credentials (username, password, and IP address).

## Step 2 – Connect to the printer via SSH
1. Open a terminal:
    * **Windows** → Command Prompt
    * **Mac** → Terminal
2. Enter the following command, replacing `[ip-address]` with the IP shown on your printer: `ssh root@[ip-address]`
3. Enter the password displayed on your printer when prompted.

## Step 3 – Add SimplyPrint config to Moonraker
You now need to add the SimplyPrint section to the `moonraker.conf` file.
There are **two ways** to do this:

### Option A – One-liner (recommended)
This command will append `[simplyprint]` to the bottom of the config file automatically:
```
echo "[simplyprint]" | sudo tee -a /usr/share/moonraker/moonraker.conf

```
### Option B – Edit manually with "nano"
1. Open the config file in the editor:
```
nano /usr/share/moonraker/moonraker.conf

```
2. Use the **arrow keys** to scroll to the very bottom of the file.
3. Press **ENTER** to add a new empty line.
4. Type:
```
[simplyprint]

```
5. To save and exit nano:
    * Press **CTRL + X**
    * Press **Y** to confirm saving
    * Press **ENTER**

## Step 4 – Restart Moonraker (or the printer)
To apply the change, restart your printer.
Alternatively, if you’re using Fluidd UI, you can restart **Moonraker** from the interface.

✅ That’s it — your Creality HI printer should now be ready for SimplyPrint as per our Klipper setup guide! Check the Fluidd web UI (located at the printer IP address) for the setup code, or click "Add printer" inside the SimplyPrint web panel where it should pop up.
