Sheridan College serves 400 high-capacity printers to over 20,000 students, staff, and faculty spread across three campuses. These clients run a mix of Windows, Mac, and Linux. PaperCut was the best fit for our scale in terms of features, support, and value.

Well done on producing the best print charging solution I have used! PaperCut is fast, reliable and easy to manage. The advanced charging options provide excellent flexibility and the web administration interface is the icing on the cake.

I've gotta say PaperCut is great and I've been singing its praises to other departments. The reports quickly show me printer usage at a glance, which I use frequently to more accurately place orders for toner and paper. I used to throw thousands of pages into the recycling bin every day because of unclaimed printouts, but overnight it's been whittled down to a couple reams! Aside from the money saved on toner/paper, I stand to save thousands reducing the number of lab attendants since these TopUp cards can be sold by our department receptionist or in one of our vending areas. I no longer need technical staff to supervise printing full time!

I have always been fond of your product since we first introduced it a year ago. I've recommended your product whenever the opportunity arose. 'Getting under the hood' and really figuring out how PaperCut works has impressed me even further. PaperCut is incredibly well thought out and well engineered, as demonstrated by the ease at which it can be clustered on a Novell iPrint environment. Too often I find "Third party" products seem to feel that they were cobbled together without much care or attention. This is not the case with PaperCut.

PaperCut NG is a fantastic product for non-profit organizations. It brings the control we need to reduce print and internet costs with along with ease of setup and administration. As a former manger in a document management company - I am recommending this product to my peers.

I was looking for a print accounting package for Novell iPrint on OES Linux when I saw PaperCut and decided to download the eval. I install a lot of software all the time and it has been a long time since I installed anything that was so easy to set up, so well documented and so easy to use. Not only does PaperCut support OES Linux, we can also run the application right on our iPrint cluster, eliminating the need for additional hardware. Support was extremely helpful and responsive in answering any additional questions we had. PaperCut has all the features we need and more, it took us all but 10 minutes to decide to purchase it.

We have used several products over the last 9 years to manage our student printing, but always had to compromise on the features to get the best product for our budget. PaperCut NG is easily the most cost effective with its low price and enterprise standard features that you would find on products costing thousands. We recoup the cost of printing, and can use features such as price reductions on the cost of duplex printing to encourage more environmentally friendly usage.

PaperCut NG adds a completely new and intuitive web interface to the product which allows for support staff to check and manage the printers from any computer on the network. With the setup wizard, you can have a fully deployed print quota system in less than 5 minutes!

The reports allow students to view their print history easily and support staff can use it to view the busiest printers (along with many other reports). We can now sell top-up cards in the shop and bar so that students can add print credit themselves.

Finally, when we have had problems and questions, the support has been nothing short of excellent. Nothing was too big or small and the developers work with you to find the solution to your complete satisfaction. In short, an excellent product from an excellent company - my only complaint is that we didn't find it sooner...

Our College has been using PaperCut since mid September, last year. We've found it to be an excellent replacement for another trouble prone print charging product. PaperCut is clean, efficient and very easy to use and install. PaperCut doesn't suffer from memory-leaks and random crashes like our previous system.

PaperCut NG is a tremendous product. I researched other companies and PaperCut stands out as the best. We perform a silent monitoring in the Fall semester 2005 and actually ran PaperCut NG in the following Spring semester 2006. The results show PaperCut NG is effective. In one lab, we went from using 9 toner cartridges in the Fall to 4 toner cartridges in the Spring. Each toner cartridge cost $152, we had a savings in that lab alone of $760 on toner cartridges.

Fall semester the top 10 students who printed the most, had a total of 44,342 prints. The following Spring semester, the top 10 students had a total of 7,320 prints. Printing went down 83.5%. Paper cost for the entire college went down 29%. We set a limit for the students to have 357 prints in for Spring semester. After they used up their $25 credit or 357 prints they would have to purchase a Top-UP card. We also used Top-UP cards and sold them in increments of $1, $5, and $10. We sold 107 cards. Our Spring semester we earned $535 from our Top-UP cards.

PaperCut NG really has made a big difference to our college. Both on ease of use and also to financial savings we have been able to make, on toner and paper wastage. We have experienced cost reductions of approx. 48%. The functionality of the users ability to transfer funds to other accounts, all from a web page means it's simple and straight forward, for both users and admins. A great bit of software with regular relevant updates!

We have a network for about 60 students. We replaced 2 printers in our student computer lab last year and spent hundreds of francs on consumables. We tried everything to recoup costs from an honor system deposit box to quarterly fees built into usage cost. None worked. Since installing Papercut, we have been able to recover ALL of our printing costs and build more accountability that has dramatically reduced wasted paper usage. And the printers don't get abused all the time!

I continue to be shocked at the usability and simplicity of Papercut. It has the ability to control so much, yet the program is so simple. The daily administration is almost non-existent. By using the Top-Up card feature, we sell prepaid cards in our snack bar and the students credit their accounts via the web interface themselves. It is truly an "auto-pilot" program.

Kudos for a product well designed! I highly recommend anyone to this program.

Thanks to your marvellous product we have saved over £300 pounds in the last month on people doing unauthorised printing. Your great support during our testing phase ensured an already straightforward deployment was achieved with the greatest of ease.

PaperCut tech support is phenomenal! The support staff has always been friendly, helpful and quick to respond. We run a complicated operation that covers 27 printers, 5 sites, 5 print servers and over 1000 users. PaperCut staff helped us configure, troubleshoot and fine-tune our installation. Thanks to their help, we have been able to maximize the value of this product to save hundreds of dollars!

The first day it was installed it stopped a 1000 page erroneous print job to a remote network printer. Since then, our costs have plummeted. This is one of the best technology investments we have made!

PaperCut seamlessly took control of our recently purchased HP Laserjet 2100 printer. It was extremely easy to add users. I have already seen that the students are becoming more responsible fitting more work onto a single sheet by using columns, a smaller font, and changing the margins; they are learning to do better word-processing...

We have been using PaperCut for since 1999 and have cut our toner and paper usage in half. The user enquiry tool encourages the students to be economical and responsible in the printer use. Waste bins near the printer are almost empty. We have found PaperCut very easy to set up and maintain for our 1000+ users. With the account creation rules and auto scheduling, PaperCut effectively manages itself.

PaperCut is a wonderfully useful piece of software! It has drastically cut the amount of paper in the recycle bin. Students are much more responsible about their printing. PaperCut forces them to be more conservative about the use of resources. Considerably more thought now goes into the decision to click the printer icon.

We initially evaluated a range of products. PaperCut did everything we needed at the most competitive price. Three years on there's no looking back. All upgrades have been implemented without any problems. The word "PaperCut" is now part of the College vocabulary and students now have access to printers 24 hours a day, all thanks to PaperCut.

Since moving over to PaperCut Quota in January 2006, administration and management of the system could not have been easier or simpler. It has greatly reduced administration time as students are able to check up and top up their own print quota. With the upgrade to PaperCut NG this year, ease of management is further enhanced with the administration console now accessible via a web interface. Staff can now manage the system from any workstation connected to the College network. The new reports available in NG will be very useful for printer management and planning/budgeting purposes.

Technical excellence in the software itself is well complemented by your technical support team. The College has been most impressed with the level of service we have experienced in the past 18 months.
