Breakthrough features, unmatched flexibility

From SSO with MFA to the all-new intelligent print routing, PaperCut are delivering powerful tools that give you control while offering customers more choice.

Modern authentication & user onboarding

Enhance your clients’ security and user experience with PaperCut Hive’s advanced authentication options and streamlined onboarding process. Offer flexibility, convenience, and robust security all in one package.

Secure SSO & MFA

Implement SAML-based Single Sign-on (SSO) and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to ensure a seamless and secure log in experience for both admins and end users. With these features, customers can:

  • Integrate with existing Identity Providers (IdPs) like Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, and Okta.
  • Centralize authentication, reducing the risk of security breaches, and helping to meet industry certifications.
  • Enable SSO and MFA to give users a log in experience that is familiar and consistent with other software within the organization.

Tailored user onboarding

Customize the onboarding journey to fit your customers' unique needs. Whether it’s IT-driven or user-driven, the flexibility of onboarding options ensures a smooth start for all users:

  • Choose from multiple invite methods: email, messaging apps (e.g., Slack, Microsoft Teams), or direct link.
  • Customize which options users get within the PaperCut Hive User Portal (desktop app, mobile app, or both)
  • Syncing users from a directory? Delay invites until the perfect moment, ensuring users receive them when everything is ready.

Self-serve user portal

Empower end users with a dedicated portal designed for self-service and minimal IT intervention. The User Portal allows users to:

  • Set up their devices independently, reducing reliance on IT admins or hunting for email invitations.
  • Access their print history, view access codes, and link their managed devices.
  • Detects whether the computer app is already installed and linked on a user's computer after IT deployment, simplifying the setup process for users.

Authenticate on print

Simplify the print setup process, especially in environments where the PaperCut Hive app is deployed via MDM tools like Jamf or Microsoft Intune. Key benefits include:

  • One-time authentication at the point of first print, reducing user setup steps.
  • Improved user experience on shared devices, removing the need to track down invite emails.
  • Enhanced security with authentication happening only when it’s truly needed.
