Phoenix offers PaperCut print-management software for organisations that need more control than printer settings alone provide. PaperCut records print activity, applies user and group rules, reports on usage and costs, and supports secure workflows across shared printers and multifunction devices.
The result is a print environment where confidential jobs are collected by the right person, unwanted output is reduced and managers have evidence for print-policy and cost decisions.
Secure print release
Print jobs are held until the verified user releases them at a supported device. This keeps confidential documents away from unattended output trays and prevents forgotten jobs from printing unnecessarily.
User authentication
PaperCut identifies users before permitted device functions or held jobs are released. Authentication methods are selected to match the supported equipment and the organisation’s identity environment.
Usage tracking and reporting
Central job logs and reports show print activity by user, group, device, account and time period. This supports departmental reporting, cost allocation and informed decisions about the print estate.
Print rules and cost control
Policies can guide or enforce choices such as mono, duplex, permitted colour use, quotas or routing to a more suitable device. These controls reduce avoidable output while preserving approved business printing.
PaperCut MF
PaperCut MF provides core print tracking, reporting, rules and cost-management functions. PaperCut MF extends PaperCut into supported multifunction devices, including embedded authentication, secure release at the device and control of copy and scan activity.
Phoenix confirms the appropriate PaperCut product, device compatibility and authentication method against the existing or proposed print estate before supply.
Business problems PaperCut addresses
- Confidential documents are left on shared printers.
- Uncollected jobs consume paper and toner.
- Print use and costs are difficult to attribute to teams or departments.
- Colour, single-sided or high-volume printing needs consistent policies.
- Users move between shared devices and need a controlled release process.
Plan software with the print estate
PaperCut is most effective when device compatibility, user directories, authentication, network print queues and reporting requirements are considered alongside equipment and managed support.
