How Law Firms Reduce Costs and Improve Security with PaperCut

Law firms juggle a lot—tight deadlines, confidential documents, demanding clients, and rising operating costs. Printing is one of those areas that often gets overlooked, yet it can quietly drain budgets and create security risks. That’s where PaperCut comes in.

PaperCut helps law firms take control of printing and document workflows in a simple, practical way—without slowing anyone down.

Where Printing Costs Add Up

Between pleadings, contracts, discovery, and exhibits, printing is part of everyday life in a law firm. The challenge is that without visibility, it’s easy for costs to creep up:

• Color printing when black and white would do

• Duplicate or forgotten print jobs

• Personal printing mixed in with firm work

• No clear picture of who’s printing what

PaperCut gives firms a clear view of printing activity, making it easy to spot waste and make small changes that add up to big savings.

Easy Ways Firms Save Money

Law firms using PaperCut often cut print costs by 20–40% through:

• Defaulting to double-sided and grayscale printing

• Prompting users before large or color jobs

• Tracking usage by department or matter

• Reducing abandoned print jobs

These improvements happen in the background, so attorneys can stay focused on client work.

Keeping Client Information Secure

In a law firm, document security isn’t optional. Leaving sensitive documents on a printer—even for a few minutes—can be a serious risk.

PaperCut’s secure print release solves this problem:

• Print jobs wait in a secure queue

• Attorneys and staff release jobs at the printer using a PIN or badge

• Documents only print when the right person is standing there

This simple step goes a long way in protecting confidential client information.

Better Control and Peace of Mind

PaperCut also helps firms:

• Keep a clear record of printing and scanning activity

• Support internal policies and compliance requirements

• Respond confidently to client security questions

It’s about knowing where documents go—and who handled them.

Supporting Hybrid and Multi-Office Firms

Many law firms now operate across multiple offices, with attorneys working remotely or on the go. PaperCut supports this reality by making printing consistent and secure everywhere:

• Print securely at any firm location

• Apply the same rules across all offices

• Scan directly to email or document systems

• Reduce the need for risky home printing

The result is flexibility without sacrificing control.

A Greener, More Responsible Approach

Reducing waste isn’t just good for the environment—it’s good for business. PaperCut helps firms:

• Use less paper

• Cut down on unnecessary printing

• Track environmental impact

It’s a simple way to support sustainability goals while saving money.

Firms choose PaperCut because it’s:

• Easy to use and quick to roll out

• Effective without being disruptive

• Scalable for growing firms
