Trust in print – get your FREE e-Book from PaperCut

Schools are always in the market for innovations that save them time and reduce the number of tedious and repetitive tasks they face each day. PaperCut has teamed up with the Copyright Licensing Agency to develop a new plugin that will make a real difference to teaching and office staff preparing course materials

Trust; it’s the most important foundation of any relationship. Today, hundreds of writers, academics, researchers and scientists trust the Copyright Licensing Agency (CLA) to reimburse them whenever a member of staff copies or prints examples of their work to share with students and the CLA trusted PaperCut to find a way to ensure that essential print and copy data is collected accurately, enabling the CLA to easily make payments to the creators it represents.

Gone is the old, laborious, process of completing a data label with the information about the source material, confirming how many pages were used, copied or scanned, before dropping the label in a box next to the MFD; that’s a burden teaching and admin staff can do without.

Thanks to the CLA Copy Button, created by PaperCut for the CLA, this process has been significantly simplified. “The CLA’s PaperCut plugin was easy and straightforward to add to our college’s PaperCut installation,” a spokesperson for the Sixth Form College in Colchester, explains. “Once added, this allowed our staff to submit data to the CLA at the touch of a button, in a quick manner, direct from the photocopier machine. Compared to manually recording data, this simple method requires very little extra time for staff and has made the datacollecting process efficient and effective.”

The CLA and the Sixth Form College in Colchester aren’t alone in trusting PaperCut - in fact, one-in-three schools across the country have already standardised on PaperCut MF, a powerful print management solution which provides simple and affordable print management software for copiers and scanning devices.

These schools rely on it to facilitate mobile and BYOD printing so that staff and students can print from Chromebooks, Android, macOS, iOS and Windows devices. It also offers flexible and convenient print release powered by Find-Me printing.

All in, PaperCut MF makes print easy, secure and sustainable. Why not find out for yourself why so many schools have come to trust PaperCut to be their partner in print? You can also claim your FREE e-Book about print in education, here at papercut.com.
