Printing from the web can be a pain, especially when paper and ink is wasted on unwanted documents. Hayden Hamilton has invented a special software called GreenPrint which "analyzes what a computer sends to a printer" (Hamilton, 2008). This is great because the program allows the user to select or delete certain parts of the web document to print, which saves paper, ink and money.
However, the software is not exactly time efficient. The time spent deciding which parts of the page to print can make the printing process more lengthy. But this is a good thing because the software also saves web documents as PDF files so you don't even have to print anything. I'm not sure I would actually buy this software, but it would be nice to have! Save the trees and your money? Why not?
