Printing methods

PaperCut

PaperCut Print Deploy allows you to use the FindMe virtual printer.

After printing to FindMe, you can scan your ID on any of the campus copiers to release the print there.

Before setting up PaperCut, ensure your ID is associated with the copiers.

Windows
  1. While on campus, go to bit.ly/bacwinprint in your browser.
    1. This will automatically begin downloading the installer.
  2. Click on the installer from your download history to open it.

  3. Once it opens, follow the prompts to install Print Deploy.

    Make sure to authenticate with any prompts that appear during installation and allow the program to make changes to your PC when prompted. 

  4. After it finishes installing, a click Sign in with Microsoft in the pop-up box.

  5. After you’ve signed in with your Microsoft 365 account, Print Deploy should look like this. 
    image.png
    1. Ensure that FindMe says Installed on the righthand side.

    You can now close the window and Print Deploy will run in the background.

  6. When printing a document, select FindMe and print to it. You can then go to one of the campus copiers and release the print there.
    1. If you have your Bryn Athyn College ID card, scan it to release the print.
    2. If you don’t have your ID card, you can use the pin found on the PaperCut dashboard and enter that manually at the printer.

Associating your ID with copiers

To access the copiers on campus, faculty and staff must associate their ID card once. After associating, you can scan your ID to release prints, scan, and make copies.

  1. Scan your ID on the copier's card scanner. 
    1. This should prompt the following menu to appear on the screen:
      papercut_mf_unkown_card.jpg
  2. Enter the following credentials:

    Most copiers have a pull-out keyboard behind the display.

    • After entering your credentials, you should see the following notification:
      image.png
  3. Follow the instructions emailed to you by bac.noreply@brynathyn.edu.

    If you don’t see the email, make sure you check your Junk Email folder.

Now that you have associated your card, you can scan or copy using the campus copiers.

Scanning & copying

If this is your first time accessing the copiers, start with Associating your ID with copiers.

Scanning

  1. Place the pages you wish to scan in the top tray of the copier, face up.
  2. Scan your ID card on the copier's card scanner.

    If you have already associated your ID and it says Unknown card, try scanning again slowly.

  3. Press Scan on the menu that appears on the screen.
    image.png
  4. Chose an option to scan to:
    1. Scan to My Email will automatically fill in your BAC Email address.
    2. Scan to Email will allow you to enter any email address to send the scanned document to.

Press Start to begin. You will be sent a PDF of your scan from bac.noreply@brynathyn.edu.

Copying

  1. Place the pages you wish to copy in the top tray of the copier, face up.
  2. Scan your ID card on the copier's card scanner.
  3. Press Access Device.
    image.png
  4. Press Copy.
    image.png
  5. Select the number of copies you want and adjust the settings for copying as desired in the menu that appears. 
    image.png
  6. Press either Black/White Start or Color Start to begin the copying job.

The copier will spit out the original pages it is processing immediately, then will begin printing the copies after a brief delay.

Printing on non-standard paper

Installing drivers

Using special paper types may require the use of specific drivers for the copier. If you are printing on heavy paper, glossy paper, etc. please contact the Helpdesk and ask for the non-universal PostScript drivers to be installed for the relevant copier on your computer.

Using the bypass tray

The bypass tray on a copier is an optional side tray that can be used for feeding abnormal paper, such as envelopes, glossy paper, or weighted paper. To use the bypass tray correctly, you will need to start at the physical copier before doing anything on your computer. 

  1. Sign into the copier by scanning your ID card or entering your pin code. 
  2. Press Access Device. 
    image.png
  3. Open the bypass tray and insert the paper you wish to print to. 
    1. Make sure that you adjust the paper guides to line the paper up and keep it secure. 
    2. Once your paper is in the bypass tray you should see a pop-up window on the copier display. This will display whatever the last selected options for the bypass tray were.
      Scanned_20260612-1223.jpg
  4. If the displayed settings are correct, press OK.

    Formatting issues may arise if the document format being submitted does not align with the settings configured on the copier when paper is loaded into the bypass tray. 

    1. If you need to adjust the type or size setting, use the touchscreen to select each and adjust as needed. 
    2. When selecting the size, you can usually select auto-inch and use the physical paper guides on the bypass tray for the copier to recognize the size. Otherwise, enter it manually. 
  5. Sign out of the copier.
  6. Open the document you need to print on your computer.

    The attached screenshots are of printing from Word. If you're printing from a non-Microsoft product, getting to the print menu may be slightly different, but the printer properties will look the same.

  7. Go to the Print menu for the software you are printing from.
  8. Select the Printer Properties link underneath the printer selection dropdown.
    image.png
  9. Click the Paper Source tab in the window that appears.
    image.png
  10. Select the Paper Tray drop down menu. 
    image.png
  11. Choose the Bypass Tray option. 
    image.png

    For subsequent print jobs to the same printer, you will need to repeat steps 7-11 but instead set the paper tray to Auto Select. This will allow you to print normal pages without issue. 

Your document can now be printed using the bypass tray!

Secure printing

Secure printing allows you to set up a confidential/sensitive print job so that it won't print until you are physically at the copier. This prevents sensitive and protected information from being accessible to anyone else that uses the copier before you get to it. The two methods for secure printing are listed below.

FindMe 

Printing to FindMe is secure by default, as the print job is not released anywhere until you scan your ID at a copier. See the page for PaperCut for instructions on how to set this method up for the first time.

  1. Select FindMe to print to in whatever software you’re printing from. 
     image.png
  2. After printing to FindMe, go to the copier that you'd like to print to, and scan your ID card to release the print there.

Web printing 

If you don’t have PaperCut Print Deploy installed and you’re only planning on printing a few things securely, you can follow the instructions in Web printing. This accomplishes the same thing as printing to FindMe.
