Print, But Save Green

If you print something every day, you probably waste a little something every day as well. The GreenPrint Home utility lets you cut down on wasted paper and ink by making it fast and easy to identify and delete unwanted pages, text, or graphics in print jobs. GreenPrint installs as a printer, so if you designate it as your default, it automatically pops up each time you print. At $35 (with a free 30-day trial), the program certainly isn't cheap--but given the price of ink and paper, it can pay for itself pretty quickly.
