Guest printing from Library computers

Library guests can set up an account on the PaperCut system to print, scan or copy in the library.

You must be on a library computer to set up a PaperCut account and add print credit.

To set up your account and print:

  1. Log in to a library computer as a guest. 
  2. Register a PaperCut account. Include your email address for email updates and account recovery.
  3. Add print credit online, using a credit card to print or copy. New accounts do not contain credit.
  4. Print your document using the WebPrint option through the PaperCut site.

Scanning is free and does not require credit on your account but you do need to set up a PaperCut account to log in to the printer.
