Do your Ink cartridges keep running out quickly? Printer ink isn’t exactly cheap either. Read on and you’ll find out how to save your precious ink.
Step One
Use ecofont. Ecofont shoots holes into your font. It can help you save up to 20% ink compared to standard fonts.
Step Two
Check your document for mistakes. If you find one once you've hit print then you'll have wasted all that ink and have to print again.
Step Three
Try using software that lets you choose which parts of your document you want to print and delete what you don't. It will track your savings in ink and paper.
Step Four
Print in Black and White wherever possible. Black ink cartridges are usually much cheaper than the colours.
Step Five
Turn off your printer using the on/off switch on it before turning it off at the mains. The likelihood is that your printer will park the ink cartridges and cap them so that they do not dry out.
Step Six
Don't clean your printer heads or align them unless necessary. This wastes ink.
