PaperCut

Papercut Print Deploy allows you to use the FindMe virtual printer. When you print to FindMe, you can release the print job at any copier by going to it in person and scanning your ID. Not only does this let you print something and decide which printer you want to pick it up at afterwards, but it is also one of two ways to securely print on campus (see Secure Printing for more information). This page contains instructions on how to set up FindMe on Windows and MacOS.

This is a long one. Use the page navigation to the left of the reading pane to jump to an operating system instead of scrolling.
