| PaperCut NG has two
types of accounts - personal accounts and shared
accounts. Each user has a personal account. This
is the default account charged under normal operation.
In some organizations and businesses it may be useful
to provide users (or selected users) with the option
to charge printing to a shared account. Some uses
of shared accounts include:
In business:
- Allocate and budget printing by business areas
(e.g. cost center)
- Track printing by project, phase, client or
account
- Track printing by client/matter - popular
in legal and accounting firms
In a school or university:
- Budget staff use via shared faculty or department
accounts
- Provide shared accounts for classes or subjects
- Track printing costs by subject area

Allocating to Shared Accounts
Printing is allocated to shared accounts via
a customizable popup window that is displayed
after sending a print job. Two types of popup
window are available:
- Standard - A simple window
design ideal for most users.
- Advanced - An advanced window
designed for the power user including features
such as search, preference list, recent selections,
comment entry and invoicing options. This is
ideal for businesses including engineering,
legal, accounting and architecture firms.
Shared Account Access Control
Access to accounts is controlled via integrated
network group membership or optionally PINs.
 Additionally,
- Choose which users can charge to shared accounts
- Select "confirmation mode" allowing
users to confirm their print via a popup
- Control access to shared accounts via PIN's
or network security groups
