Mobility Print can be used on non-managed personal devices, such as iOS, Windows, macOS, Android, and ChromeOS. It allows end-user clients (for example, iPhones, Chromebooks, Android phones, and laptops) to securely print to any WolfPrint printer. Linux operating system is not supported at this time.
These instructions will guide you through the setup and print process for the Chrome operating system.
Before you start - Connect to the NC State WiFi Network!
To print with Mobility Print, your device must be connected to the campus WiFi network.
- On-Campus: Connect to eduroam or ncsu Wi-Fi
- Off-Campus: Use NC State's VPN Service
Add the PaperCut Mobility Extension
Chrome OS uses a browser extension for PaperCut’s Mobility Print service, instead of an App. If you have a previous version of the App installed, you will automatically be prompted to update to use the extension.
- Visit the Chrome Web Store and search for Mobility Print by PaperCut.
- Click on the blue Add to Chrome button to install the Mobility Print Extension.
- After the extension is added, a Welcome to PaperCut Mobility Print message will appear, indicating you are ready to print.
After you have added the PaperCut Mobility Print Extension, follow these 3 steps to print!

- Open the file you want to print.
