[1] For the eco friendly computer folks, [2] GreenPrint software may be something to look at.

GreenPrint eliminates the unwanted pages when you try to print something from the internet. It’s patent-pending technology analyzes each page before it is sent to the printer for the most common of wasted characteristics e.g. pages with just the URL, banner ad, logo or unwanted legal statements. With that, less paper is used and importantly saving trees and reducing wastage.

The software also incorporates a one click PDF writer, a print preview (called GreenView) and a great reporting feature which keeps track of the number of pages and estimated money you have saved. Buying the enterprise version tracks the number of trees and Carbon Dioxide reduction too.

Currently, they will plant a tree for every copy of [2] GreenPrint sold before March 31 2008. If they reach 500,000 trees before March 31 2008, they´ll match every tree planted with an additional tree, making March 2008 a Million Tree March.

The downside is that it is not free but it may save you money in the long run with less wastage of paper and ink.
