A thank you goes out to a Facebook App for bringing this amazing piece of software to my attention. Green Print is a program that becomes the middle man between your computer and printer. What it does is eliminates printing those extra pages that seem to print on everything these days. It sets itself up as your default printer then when you click print, it analyzes your print job for pages that don’t need to be printed. It then provides a great interface that allows you to print only what you want to.

Green Print is a quick download via their website. I love it not only because it is saving money, but it is saving trees and ink. I hate when you print, from the net especially, and you always get a blank page with one line of footer text. This eliminates this as you can see in my sample images below.

The process is very easy and takes just one extra button push. I have been using this for a week now and have not felt inconvenienced yet, and probably have saved 20 sheets of paper.This is probably the easiest way to help support the environment while sitting at your desk!
