How Much Ink in That Cartridge?

y Stephen H. Wildstrom Reader Mark Wilson writes: For some reason Lexmark (LXK) refuses to discuss the amount of ink in its [color inkjet] cartridges. All I want to do is find out which cartridge gives me the best value for my money. Without knowing the relative amount of ink in each cartridge, I cannot calculate the best value.

Wilson was trying to decide whether a "standard yield" or "moderate yield" offered more ink for the money. The best answer he could get in an e-mail exchange with Lexmark's customer support was: "I suggest that you may purchase the moderate-yield cartridge for home printing. However, if you are a small-business owner, you may purchase the standard- or the high-yield cartridges."

Six Savvy Ways to Get More Prints for Less Money

Printers are cheap to buy, but expensive to use. Printer vendors may think that their ink cartridges and special paper are worth their weight in gold, but that doesn't mean you can't print on the cheap. You just have to know a few simple tricks.

Preview to print less: When printing pages from a Web site, use your browser's Print Preview function to ensure that you're getting just the information you need. Even if the site has a printer-friendly option, Print Preview lets you make sure the right margin won't be cut off (some Web pages are too wide for many printers): If necessary, adjust your layout orientation from Portrait to Landscape to cover the lost territory.

In Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Opera, open the Web page you want to print and click File, Print Preview. A new screen will pop up with the content shown in printer format; it will likely fill more than a single printed page. Note the page or pages you want to print, and click the Print button at the top of the Preview screen (or press <Ctrl>-P). In the resulting Print dialog box, enter the start and end pages in the Print Range boxes (the Pages button will be selected automatically when you enter the page numbers; see FIGURE 1).

How to Eliminate That One-Word Page That Trails a Print Job

In the digital world, all the hype and attention paid to flashy products and services often drown out simple solutions to smaller, but still important, consumer needs. Yes, it’s great that we can listen to music on iPods or post and view videos on YouTube. But why do we still have to waste paper when printing Web pages?

You know what I mean. You pull up a Web page, and you decide to print it out for easier reading, or for filing. But you wind up with one or more wasted pages, usually at the very end, consisting of mostly blank space with just one line of useless text — perhaps just a copyright notice. Or, you waste a lot of ink printing images on the Web page that aren’t germane to the article.

There are ways to minimize this. You could use the “printer friendly” option on many Web sites. That may eliminate some unwanted graphics and text, but not all, and it doesn’t solve the problem of the wasted page at the end. Or, you can use a print preview feature, hope the preview is accurate, and then manually try to adjust the range of pages printed. But this doesn’t always work and it’s time consuming.

Spooling and Advanced Settings

To decide what printer settings you might be interested in changing, it helps to understand the actual process that occurs when you hit the “Print” button. Printing is a slow process, and generally it is not desirable for the whole computer (or the application controlling the printing) to be tied up while a print job is being executed. So that the computer can continue to go about its business while printing is in process, something called “spooling” is used. What this means is that a temporary place on the hard drive, the “spool”, is set aside to hold the information that is to be printed. The term dates back to the days of yore when tapes were used. Files are first sent to the spool and from there can be sent to the printer without interfering with other processes on the computer. Another advantage of spooling is that print jobs do not have to run immediately. Maybe you forgot to turn the printer on or you want to do the printing later when you are at lunch. The desired print job (or jobs) can sit in the spool until it’s time for the actual physical printing.

Gotta Print! Gotta Print! - Website Printing Tips

Do you find that your clients want to print out your web pages? This is an old habit that for some, is hard to break. Internet and printed marketing materials are two very different mediums and problems arise because what looks fabulous online can be a disaster when printed.

The problem stems from how many dots make up a digital image on the web a clear printed image - printing actually requires three times as many dots! Whether you a computer geek or a green environmentalist, the sentiment is that computers and the Internet are suppose to save trees by saving paper.

Do you wistfully hum the old Hollywood show-tune "Gotta Dance!" substituting the lyrics "Gotta Print!" If you or your web visitors have just gotta print then you'll find this short list of web printing tips useful.

All websites do not print the same. Structures of websites vary and few web designers create sites so they can be printed-it's just not the way of the web. Depending on a visitor's computer, background colors are often omitted, resulting in a patchwork-looking page when printed. If you know your website's audience is comprised of people who print the screens, let your designer know, so a solution can be implemented in the design.

Print Preview. Because the site and visitor's computer configuration effect printing, the Print Preview function is extremely useful in any browser. Rather than clicking Print and sending the document to print (which can cause some web pages to print out on several pieces of paper), select Print Preview where you can choose Shrink to Fit or Print to Fit. Selecting this function will size the web page to print on one sheet of paper. Printing on less paper will make it easier to review, cost less and help the environment.
