AUNE Computer Resource Room (CRR)
Computer Resource Room (CRR)
The Computer Resource Room (CRR) uses a pay-to-print system. Students receive an allotment of free pages when they establish a PaperCut account. Pay-to-print enhances our campus sustainability performance by increasing awareness regarding printing and reducing waste. Accounts are not created automatically; please see directions below to establish your PaperCut account.
How to request your PaperCut account
If you are a new or continuing student and need a PaperCut account, please submit a HelpDesk request online at http://helpdesk.antioch.edu to request an account.
- Select “Student Printing – PaperCut (AUNE Only)” from the ISSUE drop down menu
- Select “New Account” from the CATEGORY drop-down menu
- Enter “CRR” as the location
- Provide your first and last name, Antioch email address and Student ID number in the Request Detail section
You will get a message to your Antioch email account with your new PaperCut account details within 5 business days of posting your HelpDesk request.
How do I print?
Student printing is available in the CRR utilizing the pay-to-print system: PaperCut. To print, first you must have a PaperCut print account (see above for information on how to request an account). Once an account has been created you may print from any of the computers in the CRR. When printing a document, you will be prompted for your PaperCut username & password. Upon entering it, your print job will be held in the Release Station print queue. You may continue printing additional jobs until you are ready to release all or some of them for printing. Unreleased jobs will remain in the queue for 6 hours and then they will be deleted.
Once you are ready release your prints, proceed to the "Release Station" computer positioned between the printer & copier. Enter your PaperCut username & password, confirm you have enough funds available and select which jobs you want to print. At this time, the funds will be deducted from your account and the jobs will be printed. You may also cancel any jobs you no longer need printed. Any unreleased jobs will be automatically deleted 6 hours after they were sent to the print queue.
Printing will deduct from your account at ten cents per page. The printer defaults to print double-sided, so if you have a two-page document, it will print on a single sheet of paper, double-sided, at a charge of 10 cents.
What if I forget my PaperCut account password?
Please try not to forget your password! We know, though, that this can happen. If you do forget your password, submit a HelpDesk request online at http://helpdesk.antioch.edu.

What if I need more credits in my PaperCut account?
When you establish your CRR print account, you will receive a one-time, up-front credit applied to your account based on your program matriculation, as follows:
- Certificate programs: $10.00
- Master’s programs: $20.00
- Doctoral programs: $40.00
If you need to print additional pages beyond the allotted free pages, you can add funds to your PaperCut account. To do so use the link saved on the CRR computers called “PaperCut.” This will bring you to your PaperCut account page.
- Log in with your account credentials.
- On the lower left, click the “Add credit” link.
- Select the amount you’d like to add, and click “add value.”
- Enter your Visa, Mastercard, or Amex credit or debit card billing information and click, “pay.”
Please note that you must be using a computer at AUNE to access this website. The PaperCut website is bookmarked on all CRR computers!
What if I don’t have a credit or debit card? How do I add funds to my PaperCut account?
Most bank checking accounts come with a debit card, at no additional cost. You also can purchase a reusable, pre-paid Visa/Mastercard debit card from Walgreen’s, Hannaford, Target, or other area vendors.
What do I do if I want to retrieve unused funds in my PaperCut account?
It is not possible to retrieve unused PaperCut account funds, so please plan accordingly and only deposit the funds that you expect to use before graduation. And remember, you will receive a one-time credit when you establish your CRR print account.
What if I have work-study-related materials to print?
It is NOT your responsibility to pay for any print jobs that you perform as part of a work-study position on campus. Please check with your work-study supervisor about how to print those documents.
What about course assignments?
We have notified all faculty about the Pay-to-print system in the CRR and have suggested that instructors accept coursework in electronic form. Many instructors already permit students to submit their course assignments in electronic form. If you are unsure, ask your instructors if they will accept your work in electronic form.
What if I want to read, in hard-copy form, assigned course texts that are provided by the instructor in electronic form?
As with any assigned course reading such as textbooks, it is the responsibility of students to access these documents (e.g., through purchase, library lending or viewing electronically).
