Authorizing PaperCut Scan to Cloud for Google Drive

Papercut MF allows for the scanning of documents directly from a Papercut MF enabled printer to Google Drive. However, there is an initial set up process that you must run through. This article will explain those steps.

Log in to a copier that has Papercut MF enabled. You can tell if it does if this is the initial login screen:
You can either select Username and Password, where you will be required to enter your EWU username and SSO password or ID number, which only requires your EWU ID.
Select the Scan option at the following screen.
Select Google Drive or One Drive
Place your documents on the Scanning bed or Document Feeder and press Start to begin the scan.
Once your documents have finished scanning, tap Finish and then press then Send. After your scans process, you'll see a confirmation message that the scans have been complete.
Be sure to sign out of the device after your scan has completed by clicking on the Sign Out button at the home screen.
Your work e-mail will be sent an authorization e-mail from either Google or Microsoft, depending on whether you chose Google Drive or OneDrive. The authorization e-mails will look like this, with an embedded authorization link. Sign in to your work e-mail to retrieve the messages.
