The PaperCut Story
At PaperCut, we believe two things: great code can change the world, and a great flat white can change your morning.

We’re a BCorp-certified company on a mission to make our customers' printing waste-free, easy, and secure. With a global footprint spanning 195 countries and 140 million end users, we are a true Australian success story moving forward into the cloud, SaaS, and beyond print.

What We Do
PaperCut was founded on a single question: How can we put an end to piles of wasted paper sitting in printer trays? Now, we’re joined by more than 125 million users – across all 195 countries and 85,000+ organizations – all crafting better environments one print job at a time. In a nutshell, our print management software inspires earth- and dollar-saving behavior by giving you powerful visibility and control over who prints what (and how much). It’s led to the wider PaperCut team saving over 750 million sheets of paper to date – that’s like 80,000 trees! It also makes your day-to-day a lot easier. After all, what really sets our solutions apart is how simple they are to install and use – no matter your size, your printers, or the devices and operating systems your users bring to the table. Everything just works. But great software without the people to match is like a printer without paper. That’s why we’ve spent over 20 years building strong relationships lasting just as long – including our first ever customer, reseller, and employee – while fostering a global support network second to none. So next time you print, be sure to ask yourself: Could you be printing better with PaperCut?
