Information
Each WolfPrint FollowMe printer is labeled with a QR code that links to a secure PaperCut URL where print jobs can be released.
While traditional print release (using an NCSU ID card or manual login) is still available, users can scan the QR code using a mobile device and release their print job from the web for a touch-free experience.
To use the Touch-Free print release
- 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.
- The QR code will pop up a notification on your device. Tap to open the URL and verify it takes you to the printer you are using on "papercut.oit.ncsu.edu".
- Enter your Unity ID and password to log in to PaperCut.
- 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.
- Tap the print button on the bottom left to release the print jobs that are still checked.
