Anytime you want to print out something from a website, you always end up with a bunch of other stuff, right? You get all the ads that were on the page, or you get a page that has the copyright from the site and the rest is blank. Well you can do something about it so you are left with extra pages or pages you didn’t want to print in the first place. This site offers some tips on how to conserve ink when printing web pages and other documents.

The tips include using the print preview mode and taking advantage of the draft mode. Using the draft mode is a great way to save ink on color prints that aren’t that important to you. Every time you print out some directions from Yahoo Maps!, you don’t need to have it look nice. Print it in draft mode and you’ll save time and money.
