Our college has tried other packages to handle excessive waste printing by students and while they worked the interface was clumsy and difficult or just too costly, we discovered PaperCut in 2000 and found it to be the easiest and most effective product to handle this for us. The interface is very intuitive and the ability to remote update accounts for printing credits allows us to basically set and forget.
Our college effectively halved the cost of printing in the first year. Now students are responsible for their printing and Internet usage.
On the occasional times I have contacted support for assistance or for suggestions I have found them to be relatively quick with a response and the suggestions actually actioned where possible.
I cannot recommend this product more highly. Thanks guy's for a great product.
