Nl tpng wth cnsnnts s th bst w t sv nk! There are some debates over EcoFont, because the font style is actually wider than many others. Another great solution to using less ink is to set the default setting to print in Draft mode. It always surprises me when I print in a new location that almost every printer I use isn't automatically set this way! Do it now!
Why can't we have eco-hackers that do this for us? :D -Andy Margaret McCasland wrote: > Thanks for the link.
