Printing: Shared Accounting

Here is a summary of what you'll see relating to departmental chargebacks on devices when printing on campus-owned devices, using Multi-Function Devices (MFDs) or submitting jobs to Web Print.

Printing from a UWRF-Managed Workstation

The PaperCut software installed on your workstation provides a summary of the document, the selected printer, the cost to print the document and an additional chance to cancel a unintended print job.

Windows Workstations

After submitting a job to print, the following notification appears on campus workstations. Need another account added to charge prints/copies to? Please use our request form and DoTS will take care of that for you. 

Select the desired account to charge the print job to from the dropdown box. Press the print button to send the job to the printer.

MacOS (Macintosh) Workstations

After submitting a print job, the following notification appears on the workstation. Need another account added to charge prints/copies to? Please use our request form and DoTS will take care of that for you. 

Select the desired account to charge the print job to from the dropdown box. Press the print button to send the job to the printer.

Selecting an Account at the MFD

Starting with the PaperCut 19 release, account selection is now available at the device for print jobs if the account pop-up doesn't appear or if the pop-up is not completed on the workstation. This functionality only applies to the campus Konica Minolta MFDs; HP laser printers do not have this functionality.

Jobs that do not yet have an account assigned will have a message: Account needed.

Tap the arrow button to the right of the job name and tap the pencil icon (outlined in red below) to select an account.

Making Copies

For more information regarding copier operation, please see our  copying documents article.

After logging into the MFD, the following screen appears. Select the desired account from the listing on the device. Please note, the accounts available will change depending on who is accessing the device. Need another account added to charge prints/copies to? Please submit your request to DoTS and we will get the account added for you. 

Web Print

Log on to the UWRF printing portal to upload documents from anywhere with an Internet connection. For more information regarding printing documents using the Web Print portal, check out our knowledge base article. Select the appropriate account from the drop down. Need another account added to charge prints/copies to? Please submit your request to DoTS and we will get the account added for you.
