Important Login Information

Release a Print Job

2. Select Print Release.
3. Select the checkbox next to the print job you want to release.
4. If needed, adjust the number of copies.

6. Select Log Out when finished.

Note: Any print jobs not released will be automatically deleted after the time period configured by the PaperCut administrator.

Scan to Email

Troubleshooting

• Make sure you are using your Employee ID, not a student ID or another identifier.
• Be sure to enter the ID with leading zeros so the total length is 8 digits.
• If your print job does not appear, confirm it was sent to the PaperCut Universal print queue.
• If the print driver is missing or not working, reinstall the PapercutMF-Universal driver from \\papercutmf\.
