PaperCut has launched at the Main Campus Library this week. PaperCut is a print management system used to seamlessly monitor and control printing and copying. With PaperCut students are able to print and copy documents.

PaperCut will be implemented in other computer labs and at other campuses at a later date.   

How does it work?

 Each 麻豆影视 student is issued a PaperCut account which is used to print and copy documents across all campuses. When a user prints or copies anywhere on campus, the total cost of the print job is deducted from their account balance. The costs for printing and copying across all 麻豆影视 campuses is as follows:

路         Black-and-white printing costs 10 cents per page ($0.10)

路         Color printing costs 25 cents per page ($0.25).

An initial $10 non-refundable print credit is applied to each student鈥檚 PaperCut account at the start of each term for which they are enrolled. Students may continue using 麻豆影视 print services until their PaperCut account balance reaches $0. Once a student鈥檚 PaperCut account balance reaches $0 they will not be able to print or copy documents until additional print credit is added to their account at the Library circulation desk. A user can check their print credit balance by accessing their PaperCut account online at
