Last updated November 12, 2025
For the login page link, your username, or password — you must reach out to your school's front office or information technology department.
PaperCut is print management software used by your school. This guide doesn’t contain a direct link to your schools printing system or login page.
Confirmed ways to get the login link:
✅ Ask your school’s front desk or technology department.
Other tricks that might work:
❓ Search the internet for “PaperCut” + your school’s name.
❓ Check your school’s website or internet for “printing” or “PaperCut”.
❓ Look back at your email to see if your school sent instructions.
❓ There’s a slim chance this trick might work, depending on your school’s setup - connect to your school’s Wi-Fi and try out these links: http://papercut, http://print, http://papercut:9191, or http://print:9191. (Don’t get your hopes too high).
This article is about PaperCut NG and PaperCut MF. The PaperCut login screen will look something like this:
| Web login | Desktop client login |
|---|---|
 |  |
Note: If you see the name Pocket or Hive anywhere (like on your printers) then go to Printing for end users of PaperCut Hive or PaperCut Pocket instead. | |
Where is the PaperCut login page?
You are currently on the PaperCut company website. We make the software, but we don't manage your school's printing system. We can’t provide a direct link because every school has its own unique web address (URL).
Please ask your IT department or school’s front office for the login address.
What are my username and password login details?
Your PaperCut login details are almost always the same username and password you use for other school systems (like logging in to a computer, WiFi, or the student portal).
If your password does not work, you need to contact your school's IT department or help desk for all password and account issues.
Note:
PaperCut (the company) cannot reset your password.
Don't try to use any password reset function on this (papercut.com) website.
Why can't PaperCut help me with my account?
For your security and privacy, we do not have any access to your school's system.
We make the PaperCut software, but your school's IT team installs, hosts, and manages it completely. They are the only ones who can access your account, reset your password, or help you log in.
How do I print with PaperCut?
The process for getting set up to print can be different at every school or organization. Your school's IT department is responsible for choosing and setting up the specific method you need to use.
The short answer: You have to reach out to your IT department to get set up for printing.
They will be able to provide you with the exact instructions for your environment.
