PaperCut

PaperCut printing services are available in the Prince George and Quesnel Libraries and Open Access Labs with the primary goals to: 

  • cut down on paper waste
  • reduce our carbon footprint

Since May 31, 2010, the printing at CNC has produced over 61,302KG of C02, which is the energy equivalent of running a 60W bulb for 3,859,784 hours!

Pay to Print

Pay to print encourages us to be more mindful about what we print. You can view and manage your personal printing account from the PaperCut Dashboard.

PaperCut Frequently Asked Questions

PaperCut is the name of a printing solution that allows you to track and manage your print jobs and account balance.

The environmental impact of our current printing usage is averaging about 12,500 KG of CO2 every year. That's the energy equivalent of using a 60W light bulb for 775,425 hours! With the goal of reducing our carbon footprint, students will be required to pay to print from the labs and library.

Whenever you print from one of the open access labs, a popup dialog box will show you the cost of the print job. If you accept the charge, the cost will automatically be deducted from your available credit.

  • Black and White printing and copying costs 10¢ per page (20¢ double-sided).
  • Colour printing (where available) costs 40¢ per page (80¢ double-sided).

Your balance will be displayed in the PaperCut agent running on each Lab or Library workstation.

You can also sign in to the PaperCut Dashboard to see your current account balance.

There are three ways to add funds to your PaperCut printing account:

  1. Sign in to papercut.cnc.bc.ca and add funds using your credit card

PaperCut accounts without an associated CNC account will expire after 18 months.

PaperCut credits are non-refundable, but they can be transferred to another account through the PaperCut Dashboard. You are encouraged to transfer your credits to another user before your account expires.

Refunds can only be granted, at the discretion of IT or Library and Resource Centre staff, for the following reasons:

  • Fading or streaked printer toner.
  • Paper jams occur, and the printer does not automatically reprint the job.
  • The printer has to be powered down to fix an error.
  • Formatting issues where staff have assisted you.

You can request a refund via the “Recent Print Jobs” link on the PaperCut Dashboard:https://papercut.cnc.bc.ca

Users without a CNC account can print from the open access workstations in the Prince George Library. They can also register a PaperCut Account in order to use the photocopiers.

In Prince George, either the Library or Resource Centre staff 2-724 or the IT helpdesk 2-710 can offer help.
In Quesnel, Technical Support S136 can offer help, or call the Prince George IT Helpdesk 250-561-5812
