Six of the Best Ways To Greener Printing

February 5th, 2008 by Jenny Williams

PRINT ON BOTH SIDES OF YOUR PAPER
Save paper, money and at the same time save our planet.

PRINT MULTIPLE PAGES ON A SHEET
You can print up to 16 pages on a single sheet of paper!
There is a tendency to overlook this feature but its a great cost effective way to print draft pages.

USE THE CORRECT PRINT MODE
Using the different print modes on your printer you can choose a quality and speed that is appropriate for the document you are printing.

OPTIMIZE YOUR PRINT AREA
You can achieve this by expanding your margins. Many word processing documents have a default template so every time you open a new document, it is formatted in a particular way. Try different setting in your default template to optimize your print area.

ENJOY YOUR PRINTER’S LOW POWER MODE
Most printers automatically go into a low power state after a few minutes of inactivity.

TURN YOUR PRINTER OFF
If you are not using your printer for long periods of time then switch it off. Whilst your printer is standing idle it still uses energy. You’ll be surprised how much energy your printer is using whilst it is just sitting on your desk.
