Printing to Laser Printers from Photoshop
Before you begin: Work locally. Always start by moving your file to the desktop. Opening and printing files from a USB (Cloud, or other) drive can create problems.
Navigate to File>Print. Select a printer from the Printer dropdown menu. Select one of the Xerox Printers.
(Tip: if you only want black and white output, select one of the “Mono” print queues and you will be charged the cheaper black and white rate.)
(Note: these instructions are written for Mac. Most functions in Windows are very similar. There will be notes for some steps where the process differs for Windows.)

When your document has reached Papercut, you will see a pop-up notification window.
Follow the releasing prints from Papercut instructions to release your print.
Remember to check the print cost before releasing the print – it can be a great indicator if something is wrong with the size of your print.
