PaperCut NG is designed to help
you save paper. How does it do this? Allow us
to explain.
How Much Paper Are You Using?
That sounds like an easy question, but many organizations
simply have no idea of the volume of paper used
for printing. If you do know, do you know where
it goes? PaperCut NG can arm you with information
not just about overall printing volumes, but volume
by printer, group/department, user and many other
factors. So next time the question is asked, "where
does all the money we spend on printing go?",
the answer is a few clicks away.
How Much Paper Can You Save?
There are many ways to implement PaperCut, so
the amount saved will depend on which features
and strategy you choose to implement. The following
table gives an indication of the typical amount
of paper saved by implementing each strategy.

Letting users know their
printing is being tracked
Often this is enough to prevent the kind of
printing users know they shouldn't be doing.
E.g. perhaps that sporting club newsletter
will be printed at home from now on... |

Filters and restrictions
Stop mistakes like printing a 100 page document
instead of the 1 interesting page. Enforce
double sided printing on the high volume printer.
