Add to or remove from PaperCut cost center

What This Request Is For

Use this request to add or remove people from a PaperCut cost center, or to create, change, or remove a cost center itself. Cost centers allow faculty and staff to charge print, copy, and scan jobs to a departmental account rather than a personal PaperCut balance.

When to Use This

Use this offering when:

• You want to add a faculty member, staff member, or student employee to an existing departmental cost center
• You want to remove someone from a cost center they no longer need
• You need a new cost center created for your department
• You need an existing cost center modified (name change, scope change) or removed
• You have student employees who print on behalf of your department and you want those jobs charged to the department rather than the student's personal account

When Not to Use This

Don't use this offering if:

• You are a student requesting additional personal print funds — use Request Additional Print Funds instead
• You are having a problem with PaperCut software on your computer — use Request PaperCut Software Help instead
• You want to charge a print job to a cost center right now — see Charging a Department Code When Printing in PaperCut in the Related Articles section for step-by-step instructions; no request needed

Before You Submit

Have the following ready before filling out the form:

• The name(s) of the person or people to add or remove (or confirm if this is about the cost center itself)
• The cost center code or name, if it already exists — or a description of what the new center is for if you're requesting one
• Whether the access is for printing only, scanning only, or both

What Happens Next

Once received, your request will be reviewed and completed within 2–3 business days. You'll receive a confirmation when the change has been made. If there are questions about your request, the Service Desk will contact you.
