You can also request a refund through PaperCut by clicking Recent Print Jobs from the left navigation menu. Under Status, locate the print job and click Request Refund. 

Printing Balance and Cat Cash

To check your printing balance, log in to PaperCut or you can check your Cat Cash funds by logging in through K-State Connect for balance information.
