QR Codes for Touch-Free Print Release


This document explains how the WolfPrint QR Codes are used for touch-free print release on WolfPrint printers.  The intended audience is an end user. 

Information


Each WolfPrint FollowMe printer should be labeled with a QR code for Touch-Free print release.  While traditional print release using an NCSU ID card or manual login will still be available, users have the option to scan a QR code using their mobile device and release their print job from the web.
 

To use the Touch-Free print release

  1. Scan the QR code with your phone.  On most phones, the camera will do this. If not, make sure "Scan QR Codes" is enabled in the camera settings.
  2. The QR code will pop up a notification your device. Tap to open the URL and verify it takes you to the printer you are using on "papercut.oit.ncsu.edu".  
  3. Enter your Unity ID and password to log in to PaperCut.
  4. All available jobs for release on that printer will be listed by default. Uncheck any that you don’t want to print at this time.
  5. Tap the print button on the bottom left to release the print jobs that are still checked.
