I'd suggest you purchase online and print the tickets with the QR codes.
Tickets should say PLUS HIGH SPEED if valid on HS1. No need to print tickets unless you are worried about the risk of your phone battery dying and being unable to charge it. No need to register or log in to an app either - the tickets are PDF and should be emailed to you
