Issue/Question
How do I check the funds in my departmental printing account or see how much I've spent on departmental printing?
Resolution
Log into PaperCut.BHSU.edu using your BHSU email address and password.
Your account's summary page will show your personal Buzz Bucks funds (Blackboard) balance.
To access your departmental balance(s), click "Shared Accounts" which is located on the left side of the screen.
Depending on how each account is set up, funds can read differently.
- If your account is restricted to a certain dollar limit, then it will show either a positive number for the amount of funds you have remaining, or a negative amount if your last print/copy job ran past your account limit.
- Unrestricted accounts will show a negative balance, which is the amount you have charged this fiscal year.
Keep in mind, these amounts are for the whole account so, if multiple people have access to the same printing account, it will show either the amount everyone has left or the total amount everyone has spent through that account (depending on the restricted or unrestricted status).
To see a list of your departmental printing transactions (includes copying), click on "Recent Print Jobs" which is located on the left side of the screen..
You can turn off the filter by clicking on it and selecting "Clear" or you can filter by dates, allocated account type (personal or shared/departmental), etc.
- You can download this list by scrolling to the bottom of the screen where there are three Export/Print options (PDF, HTML, or CSV).
- Choosing CSV will allow you to open the file in Excel and sort the data, run formulas, etc.
Please email Lori.DuBry@BHSU.edu, Print Services Coordinator, if you have any questions.
