  1. Take the document you wish to scan to the Papercut-enabled MFD
  2. Scan your ID Card to authenticate to the printer. 
  3. You will be shown the Papercut main menu screen. For copying functions select 'Device functions'.
  4. This will load the MFD's built-in menu in order to access copying. Each MFD will look a little different, but you should be able to access a copying function from here.
  5. Perform your photocopy as required.
  6. When finished, go back to the main menu, normally using a 'Home' button on the screen or on the MFD itself. When there, press the 'Home App' button to return to the Papercut main menu.
  7. Log out using the button at the top-right of the screen. If you forget, you will be timed out after a few minutes of inactivity.

Troubleshooting / FAQ

What ID cards are supported?

Expand

The only supported cards are the University card and your NHS card.

My University ID card has expired, what should I do?

Expand

Contact reception with the code on the back of your card (letters and numbers on bottom left corner), and your end-of-contract/leaving date. You may need a new photo if it is more than 5 years old.

I came in today without an ID card, how do I print?

Expand

You can type a username and password on the MFD touch screen. So you can log in to the MFDs with the same username and password you use to log in to MINTS computers. This is not as convenient or fast as presenting a card. You can also self-register other ID cards that you might have with you, for instance a store loyalty card. Bear in mind that along with your University ID card the system will only store one other card. Usually the second card wil be your NHS card, if you self register a different card this will replace your NHS card. THe next time you try and use your NHS card you will need to type your username and password to re-register it. Please note that we cannot offer support for any card other than University or NHS card. If it does not work or you lose the card you will need to erase it from the MFD yourself.

I have a computer with network connection only, the print job is listed as paused

Expand

It is likely that your MINTS credentials are not being passed with the print job. Check to see if your credentials are stored, or if you have updated your password update the stored password. To do this, on a Mac look in keychain, in Windows open Credential Manager. You should have saved credentials for a server called me-print or me-print.medschl.cam.ac.uk, you might need to update or create these credentials. If using a Mac you might also find that you have not selected the correct authentication option in lpadmin, delete the printer and consult the installation instructions to reinstall

The toner is low or the printer is displaying an error message

Expand

The printers are supported by Sharp, consumables (except paper) can be re-ordered and printer hardware errors resolved by calling the phone number displayed on each machine and quoting the six digit machine reference number. PaperCut related errors, e.g. problems relating to logging in etc. can be resolved by contacting CSCS.
