In the print queue display was our HR director’s print job, titled: “Mike Johnson – Termination”
How can you avoid this from happening in your workplace?
After successfully introducing composting into PaperCut’s Portland office, Julie Gefroh decided to take the company’s sustainability efforts to the next level.
Fortunately, sustainability at work is something the City of Portland is very, VERY passionate about.
Once upon a time, a recycling bin sat in the corner, gorging itself on unwanted printouts. After the installation of PaperCut MF, it was used sparingly. A very good thing.
I thought I’d give these scraps a second chance at life in the following daggy but practical uses for reusing paper in the office.
A support ticket came through today. Nothing unusual about that – we often hear from customers looking to solve their unique problems. This one was different, though. It got me thinking about PaperCut’s impact on the environment.
I wanted to explain to him some of what we, as a company, mean when we talk about the environment. I thought I’d share my reply.
Another ordinary day, another ordinary customer query. Or that’s what I thought before printer load balancing came to the party.
Join me as I reflect on a humbling solution journey, and dive into “the algorithm” – PaperCut’s ingenious method for handling print job distribution.
Trust me, it’s a thing of beauty.
PaperCut cares about the environment. You’ve probably figured it out with all the trees dotted around the website. The thing is, it’s more than just a gimmick or something we ‘should’ do. We really do care.
If you’re keen to change the way things are done in your office, we’ve put together a handy wee guide.
We’ve talked about all the good stuff our Google Premier Partnership gives to students.
But what about teachers? The guides for new generations? The shapers of minds? Won’t someone please think of the teachers?!
Move over pen and paper, technology and teachers are the new perfect pair – and I’m gonna tell you why.
Canada’s picturesque Nova Scotia province is somewhere you can truly feel at peace.
But in the Venn diagram of ‘Feeling at peace & handling printing for the Nova Scotia Government,’ the overlap isn’t exactly big.
So we’re chuffed to give their IT specialist Rick a slice of printing paradise. See how we did it.
Recently, I had the honor of speaking at the meetup for the Educational Technology Consortium of Victoria.
My topic of choice? How we, Australians, could put the “I” back in IT through Innovating, Involving, and Influencing.
And I’d love to get it on your mind for the next five minutes.
Two things we love at PaperCut: 1) helping you print; and 2) helping you protect the environment.
They might seem at odds, but we feel the important bit’s in between ‘print’ and ‘software’ – it’s the ‘management’ of printing through tech and awareness that matters.
And we’ve created an insights-packed infographic to drive that home. Check it out!
Tired of hearing about PaperCut MF’s awesome Google integrations? I feel ya. We’ve been banging on about them for quite some time now.
But seeing what they’re about in delightful animation form? Surely you’re down for that.
Check out what we’ve just wrapped up!
Six years is a while in the software game.
So finding out we have a long-time devotee (even serendipitously) in David Garwood, IT technician for St. Mary’s Menston Catholic Academy (SMMCA), is the greatest.
Better yet, he’s happy to report SMMCA’s thoughts on PaperCut MF are in keeping with the observed trend: they absolutely love it.
