PaperCut Printing: PaperCut

El Paso

If your primary affiliation is with the TTUHSC El Paso campus, you must contact the El Paso Libraries for PaperCut assistance.

Overview

  • TTUHSC students' PaperCut accounts are automatically created with an initial $100.00 balance.
  • On January 1st and July 1st of each year, any accounts with a balance below $100.00 are automatically reset to $100.00.
  • For use on PaperCut printers only.
  • You can also self-service transfer credit from your PaperCut account to another user with the built-in Transfer feature.
  • Faculty / Staff / Residents may also print from their PaperCut account, but must purchase credit with a credit or debit card using the online payment form.

Missing credit

  • If your account did not reset to the $100.00 balance on January 1 or July 1, please email library.it@ttuhsc.edu

Credit Surplus

  • PaperCut accounts are not "savings accounts" for printing credit.
  • Examples -
    • A balance of $0.00 on July 1st will be reset to a balance of $100.00.
    • A balance of $15.00 on July 1st will be reset to a balance of $100.00.
    • A balance of $100.00 on July 1st will remain a balance of $100.00.
    • An excess balance of $120.00 on July 1st will remain a balance of $120.00.

Print Speed

Print speed is dependent upon the complexity of document to be printed, as well as the current burden on the print server from all printers on all campuses. Print speed is never guaranteed. Delays of up to 10 minutes in certain circumstances are not abnormal.
