The free software options

PaperCut Software offers a number of popular free software options and a generous program to encourage the adoption of PaperCut in developing countries.

PaperCut Print Logger™

PaperCut Print Logger™ is a free program designed to log print activity on either servers or desktop systems. It's ideal for organizations that wish to silently track or audit printing activity. Logs are available in a friendly HTML format or in an Excel format to facilitate further data analysis. (more...)

PaperCut™ - 5 users free

A free version of PaperCut NG is made available for small offices and home users. The 5 users free license is included with the standard trial software download. If the system detects that your network/system has 5 users or less, you may continue to use the software after the 40-day trial - no license purchase is required.

The Developing World License

Government funded academic organizations based in selected developing nations may be eligible for our special licensing program. The aim of the program is to ensure that education based organizations all around the world have the opportunity to benefit from PaperCut and the costs savings associated with implementing quotas at an affordable price. In addition the program aims encourage copyright conformance in the developing world by encouraging the official licensing of commercial software. The following two options are available:

Option 1 - Self Funding License

Under the self-funding license program, PaperCut Software will issue the organization with a free 12-month license. This will allow the organization to install the software and start saving immediately on printing costs. At the end of the 12-months, the organization may purchase an indefinite license for an amount that they believe they have saved over the year. This amount will vary, however we typically suggest somewhere between 20% and 30% of the standard licensing cost.

Option 2 - Sponsorship Program

We realize that many organizations in developing countries have trouble purchasing software due to their county's restrictions on foreign currency exchange. Our sponsorship program involves linking up organizations in developing countries with universities, schools and colleges in western countries. The school in the western country sponsors the purchases of an official license at a specially discounted price. PaperCut Software has an enthusiastic and loyal customer base and a number of organizations in USA, Europe and Australia have sponsored organization in developing countries. We'll do our best to match up sponsorship arrangements.

If you feel you are eligible for our developing world license, please contact us for futher information.
