PaperCut NG is a print and
internet quota, charging, tracking and monitoring system
designed to promote the responsible use of IT resources.

With the release of

features were added. Highlights include a new mobile/iPhone

web widgets for reporting users' balance and
environmental impact, Mac Growl support, and new set of
AJAX APIs for web developers.
PaperCut on
Novell OES Linux (iPrint)
Print quota,
accounting, logging and management is now here for
Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES) Linux!
PaperCut has long been a cross-platform solution
supporting Windows, Mac and Linux/CUPS. Novell iPrint
was the one big missing hole in our cross-platform
objectives. After a few late nights, a lot of coffee,
and some help from Devon and Dean on the iPrint team, we
now have PaperCut running on OES Linux.
We're
currently in a testing phase and are looking forward to
working with Novell system administrators to further
improve PaperCut and its support for iPrint.
IMPORTANT: PaperCut targets a new yet-to-be-released
iPrint version - the version that will be shipped with
OES 2 SP1. OES2 SP1 will be made available as a public
beta to PaperCut testers. You will need to have SP1 Beta
up and going prior to installing PaperCut.
