Depending on the method youâve chosen to determine the userâs identity , users might be presented with a one-off user login popup for authentication.
Itâs pretty much a stock standard, boring popup, ready for you to customize with your branding and text so it fits in nicely with your companyâs branding and writing style.
For more information about customization, take a look at Customization in the PaperCut NG/MF Manual.
Customize branding
Create a folder named
brands
where:install location
is where PaperCut NG/MF is installed on the serverOS
is the operating system of your PaperCut server.
install location\providers\print-deploy\OS\data\brands
Save a copy of the company logo in the folder. The logo must be:
- .png format
- 150 x 82 pixels
- named
auth-dialog-logo.png
Restart Print Deploy for changes to take effect.
Customize text
In the /data/translations/custom
folder, create a JSON file for your language. For example, selfservice-en-US.json
(English US), selfservice-es.json
(Spanish), or selfservice-fr.json
(French), etc.
Add the following config keys in the file:
Config value | |
---|---|
SignInTitle | Title at the top of the login popup |
SignInInstructions | Login text instructions |
Username | User name text box label |
Password | Password text box label |
SignIn | Signin button text |

As an example, you can copy this text and save it as a JSON file:
{
"SignInTitle": "Username and password",
"SignInInstructions": "Your username and password are required so that the right printers are added to your device.",
"Username": "Username",
"Password": "Password",
"SignIn": "Sign in and add printers"
}
