GreenPrint
is generally a software that eliminates the pages that are not useful when
printing. This
software is available both for the free as well as paid subscription.
Paperless
office still seems to be a vision of the future since the computer
age has not exactly delivered on that promise. An average employee
actually consumes about ten thousand (10,000) pages a year in
printing
and you can just imagine how many thousands of papers are wasted and
consumed by multinational companies. However, a new printing
technology has been introduced to reduce paper waste consequently
saving money, and maybe more importantly the environment. The new
technology is called GreenPrint.
GreenPrint
is actually a software that eliminates pages that are not useful when
printing.
It does this by analyzing the pages of the document and looks for
typical waste characteristics such as the last page with just a URL,
a banner ad or logo, or some legal jargons. In case you actually do
not need a printout, the software also incorporates an easy to use
PDF writer.
In
your document, there might be some pages there that are blank, or
pages that contain just some irrelevant lines or text and images
(like advertisements from website) that if not printed, would not
affect the content of your document. This printing
software allows you to view your document and automatically
highlights (in red) these pages that seem to be irrelevant. Hence,
once you finally print the document, the pages and/or images
highlighted will not be included in the print outs. Of course, you
still have the option of printing
those
pages and/or images in red highlights.
The
printing
software itself also has a reporting feature that shows you how much
paper and money you have saved. This also helps to monitor the
printing
habits of an individual. In addition, the printing
software also includes an easy to use PDF writer which gives you an
option not to print the document at all by just simply saving it.
This
printing
software is available both for free and paid subscription. In an
effort to end wasteful printing
worldwide, GreenPrint World is available at no cost for people around
the world. This is a perfect opportunity for anyone who wants to get
rid of the waste of unwanted pages and have a positive environmental
impact right at their own home. GreenPrint World provides all the
basic while the Home Premium and Enterprise Edition are the paid
subscriptions for home users and corporate customers respectively
which offer extra features such as email tech support and frequent
version updates.
According
to Hayden Hamilton, CEO and the brainchild of GreenPrint, by reducing
ink consumption and paper wastage during printing, we are actually
helping to save our environment. He says that less paper and ink
wastage during printing
helps in saving trees, reducing gasses, and decreasing waste.
The
printing
software is unique in a way since it saves time and money without
compromising the environment. And because of this benefit a lot of
people have been using it. As of today, with the positive impact on
the environment, there are already around thirty (30) thousand people
using the printing
software which results to seven (7) thousand trees saved. By using
this printing
software , it is hoped that the company will be able to give everyone
a shift on how they view green technology.
