Print Credit
Each fall, all students receive a $10 print credit (equivalent to 100 double-sided, black-and-white pages) to use within that academic year.
During the summer semester, $5 worth of free printing (equivalent to 50 double-sided, black-and-white pages) will be applied for all registered students.
From any University computer lab machine, find the PaperCut icon in the taskbar and double-click the icon. This will open a small pop-up with your total available balance, including your student print credit and Billiken Bucks.
You can also check your account by visiting (you must be on the SLU network to access this site.) If you do not have enough pages in your current allotment for a print job, a pop-up notification will alert you and you will not be able to print it on a networked printer until you add credits to your account.
While on a SLU network go to (you will need to be on the SLU network to access this site.) and use your SLU username and password to log into the system.
Once you log into PaperCut, you can:
- See how much print credit is left on your account
- View pending and recent print jobs
- View print costs and transaction history
- Check your printing's environmental impact
The system will first use your print credit and then roll over to use any Billiken Bucks that may be on your account. While the print credit is designed to meet most students' academic needs, there is no guarantee that all your academic printing will be provided. If you need additional funds, simply add Billiken Bucks through the SLU Card eAccounts tool within .
At the end of the school year and the summer semester, any unused portion of your print credit will be cleared from your account, and a new allotment will be credited to you at the beginning of the new school year. Any remaining purchased Billiken Bucks will be carried forward each semester during your time at SLU.
If you print these documents from your personal account and a Billiken Print printer your account will be debited. Student organizations should continue using the print funds through the Student Involvement Center.
Print Security
When you swipe your ID to see the queue of print jobs, you will only see those you have printed. The first time you swipe into the system, you must type in your SLU username. Using your SLU username when sending in your print jobs is also very important.
