GreenPrint - paper saving software


GreenPrint is a free Windows utility that helps eliminate wasted pages while printing and helps maximize your printer's output to save on paper and ink.

After installation, you can print from any application to GreenPrint, which will automatically remove pages from your printout based on rules like "completely blank pages," "pages with an image only," or "Pages 95 percent blank with less than five lines of text," and then pass along your document to your printer with the unnecessary pages removed.

There's a version for Windows (free) and a version for Macs (which costs $29 and has a 30 day free trial). GreenPrint, detects and highlights unwanted content, such as banner ads on a Web page, that tends to spill over onto extra pages. It also lets users delete images from the printed page and quickly create print-friendly PDF documents. The GreenPrint interface appears when users print from any program.

Not only does it helps you decide what to print and not to print, but it also keeps a tally of paper, trees, and money saved.
