papercut-event-monitor
PaperCut Event Monitor is a launchDaemon component that runs as a background system service, part of the PaperCut print management suite. It monitors printer and print-job events on macOS systems, collecting data on print activity, user submissions, and device status that feed back into PaperCut's central management and accounting infrastructure. This component is essential to PaperCut's ability to track print usage and enforce policies on networked printers and multifunction devices.

1 suggestionPaperCut Event Monitor is not a standalone application — it is a system daemon (background service) bundled as part of the larger PaperCut print management suite. There is nothing to update separately. To ensure this component runs natively on Apple Silicon and continues working once Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (late 2027), you must update the parent PaperCut application itself to a recent build that includes a native Apple Silicon version of the Event Monitor daemon. Check with your PaperCut administrator or visit the PaperCut vendor support site to confirm that your installation is running the latest native version. If you manage PaperCut yourself, download and reinstall the latest macOS build from PaperCut's website using their standard installer — this will replace the Event Monitor daemon with a native version compatible with M-series Macs.
