  • Kyocera in PaperCut MF v19.1
  • Ricoh in PaperCut MF v19.1

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I edit this from the Admin interface?

Not at this time. When a user registers their selection at the MFD for the first time, PaperCut stores the language selection in the following location inside the database: tbl_user_attribute table where the attrib_name is user-default-locale. This configuration persists across devices. We don't reccomend editing this. If you want to learn more you can check out our Database Schema, or check out our Example SQL queries if you're using an extranal database.
