You can save on ink and paper when you use this handy little software tool.

We came across this in PC World online. It is printer driver software called FinePrint 5.71, which gives you better control over what you print. We’ll paraphrase a little from the review, but you should check it out for yourself.

You can print up to 8 pages on a single sheet of paper without losing any print quality. We guess this is like a contact sheet you get with photographs. We have not tested out this feature yet, but it seems that it would make for some interesting, magnifying glass, reading. Pages can also be printed double sided to further conserve paper. Remember, you will need to manually turn the paper over and reinsert in to your printer unless you have a duplexer on your printer.

FinePrint works well with web pages, allowing you to print preview the web page you wish to print and make adjustments. You can scale the page to fit on a single page and remove any banner ads and other advertising images on the page. This is a pretty important feature as a follow up to a post we made the other day.

Finally, its makes say FinePrint will work with any printer, any standard Windows application, and any type of document. We’re still testing it out. If you’ve used it, let us know what you think.
