Remove Unnecessary Page Elements Before Printing With Print Edit [Firefox]
Posted on 21 October 2011.
One of the more annoying things about web printing is the stuff that comes with them – the ads, sidebars, banners, and even blank pages. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather cut all of that stuff out to conserve printer ink. After all, all I really need is the text. Have you ever copied all of the article text to a new Word doc just so you could print it? Guilty as charged.
In this article, I’m going to show you a handy little Firefox add-on that helps with all of this. Imagine being able to delete unnecessary items in Print Preview mode before printing your webpage. Now you can.
What is Print Edit?
There’s a Format command that allows up to sixteen format properties to be applied. These format properties primarily affect the layout of the content and are intended to reduce the space that the content occupies on the printed page.
Print Edit also comes with an Undo command, which is pretty self explanatory.
Using Print Edit
When you
Alternatively, Print Edit/Print Preview mode can be entered from the Print Edit button menu on the main toolbar, or from the File menu on the main menu bar, or from the Print… submenu on the app menu as well. You can add the Print Edit button to the main toolbar by right-clicking the toolbar and selecting Customize.
Once you are in Print Edit mode, any of the displayed content elements can be formatted, hidden or deleted, prior to printing in Print Preview mode. You can also click the Preview button to return to Print Preview mode, as well as the Close button to return to normal browsing mode. It is possible to switch repeatedly between Print Edit mode and Print Preview mode as you see fit.
You can select/deselect individual elements using a highlight box. Just position the mouse so that the highlight box (solid border) is over the element, then click. The highlight box then changes to a selection box (dashed border), and you can apply an edit command.
All selected elements can be deselected by clicking the Deselect button. You can also change the border color and width of the highlight box, if you like.
Conclusion
I’m a big fan of conserving space and printing clean, easy to read pages, as well as saving my printer ink. Print Edit allows me to do all of that and it is incredibly simple to use. No longer do I have to print a web page that has useless information like sidebars and ads. If you can relate I suggest you give Print Edit a try.
Are you a fan of web printing with Print Edit?

Fedex Office Print Online Now Offers Google Docs Integration [News]

Of course, Fedex isn’t offering this out of the kindness of their heart, but rates do seem reasonable. The site quoted me $1.38 for printing out a simple two-page document at the nearest store, while having it delivered to my apartment tacked on an extra $9.99. Not as cheap as doing it yourself, obviously – but this should be handy for Google Docs users in a pinch.

Manage Printing Costs & Cut Paper Waste By Setting Up A Print Server With PaperCut
Posted on 15 December 2010.
Here at MUO, we’ve always looked for ways to conserve printer resources. Karl
One of the most effective ways both businesses and families limit wasted resources is by trying to find alternatives to using printed copies. One of the strategies to accomplish that is by assigning a value to every page printed, and limiting each user to a certain number of printouts over a certain period.
Installing PaperCut
PaperCut is actually a high quality, professional print server application, but it offers a fully-functioning free version if you have no more than five users configured in the system. If you’re setting it up for your family or have a small business, then you can use this app for absolutely free.
The setup routine configures your print server for you and you set it up by accessing http://localhost:9191 in your browser. Your first option is whether you want to install the app on your PC as the primary print server, a secondary print server, a web print server or as an Internet proxy server.
Set up your administrator account and choose a good password. If anyone can get into this account, they can pretty much modify the account balances to whatever they like, which would defeat the entire purpose of having the server.
In the next step, when you set up default costs per page, remember that this doesn’t necessarily have to be real money. If you’re setting this up in some public spot where patrons do pay, then this would reflect a real cost per page. But, if you’re setting it up in a home, this simply defines how many pages per “dollar” that your user can print.
So, if you want to limit your kids (or staff) to something like 50 pages a month, you would set the default cost per page to $0.10 and set the user credit in the next step to $5.00. However, if you’re only using it strictly as a print server that you can use to monitor and log printer activity, then set it up with all zeros.
The final step is to import users from your network. If the software is running in a corporate environment, it has the capability to import from a system using Windows Active Directory or LDAP. Most home users will just use Windows Standard.
Using The Software
Once you’re set up, you’re ready to start exploring the system. User management is pretty simple and straightforward. The User List displays a quick history of all balances and a tally of print jobs for each user. In one glance you can spot your heavy hitters.
If you’re interested in identifying peak printing times of the day, week or month, just click on one of the user names and scroll down to “Statistics & History” where you can review a historical trend for the last 30 days of print jobs.
If you want, you can also group multiple users into one account with a shared balance. This is probably most common for businesses where printing costs would come out of the department budget.
You can add as many shared accounts as you like and assign a shared balance per account. Just keep in mind that with the free version you’re allowed 5 users, so the shared account many not be quite as useful in the free version. However, if you wanted to be creative you could use one user per department and have employees log in under the department “user” account.
Finally, you’re going to want an overview of all of the printer activity. The best place to do this is in the “Reports” tab. On this page you’ll find a list of all sorts of summary reports like per-user activity, a list of the most frequent users, and a lot of other summaries sorted by account or group.
You can export all of these reports as either CSV, HTML or PDF format. Overall the application is probably the quickest and easiest way to set up a print server that not only monitors all printer activity, but also gives you a simple way to limit users from “over-printing.” Hopefully this will lead to your users coming up with more innovative and creative ways to use data rather than printing it to hard copy.
Give PaperCut a try and let us know what you think. Do you know of any other similar or better free print server apps available for multiple platforms? Share your ideas in the comments section below.

Planning to Print Photo Id Cards – What are Your Id Software Options
Posted on 12 August 2010.
Are you tired of paying the high costs associated with having another company print your photo ID? Are you planning to print your own photo ID cards? That’s smart business sense. Why leave a cost you can control in the hands of another company. But what are your ID software options?
To choose the right ID software you need to have an idea of what it is you plan to accomplish with the software. Here are some common questions you should have the answers to.
1. Are you printing one or two sides? Single sided cards are the easiest and require the most basic printer and software. However, if you need to print either graphics, or if you need to print information on both sides of your photo ID card, you will need photo ID software that either supports duplex printing or dual sided printing. Exercise a little caution, because some of the entry-level products only offer single sided printing.
2. What type of database? Will you be utilizing an internal database or an outside database? If you want to store the images and the data that you print to your photo ID cards, then choose software that allows for storage of the cards you have created. An internal database provides you with quick access to your data if you must reprint a card that has been lost or stolen. You can also make individual or global changes quickly and easily.
However, if you are going to have to share the card data with another office. you will need ODBC software, also known as an open database. Some programs will let you import ODBC, but they will not let you export. Ask your ID professional if you have any questions.
3. Are you going to be operating your software on a network? If yes, you will need to choose software that supports networking. The three photo ID software industry leaders all do.
4. Will you need to print 2D barcodes? All of the card software on the market allows for traditional barcode printing, which is 1D. However, 2D barcode printing is much more specialized, and will require special software.
5. Will you need to make changes to all your cards at once? Mass changes aren’t something you’ll want to undertake manually. You’ll want card software that can do batch processing to keep things simplified and streamlined.
6. Will you need to encode smart cards? Smart cards have an embedded memory chip, and an antenna within the card. Only some photo ID software allows you to work with this style of card.
Let’s have a look at a couple of the photo ID software packages on the market. This will give you an idea of what’s out there. Of course you’ll need to match your needs to the right software.
CardFive Software
CardFive software has certainly become a leader in the photo ID software industry, and one who has garnered much respect. They offer low pricing, excellent features, and tools that are easy to use. There are different levels of CardFive software available to choose from, depending on your needs. CardFive Classic is excellent for level entry design with no frills. Lite XL offers CSV database import, network printer ability, and magstripe encoding to list just a few features. Premier has all of the features you could ever need all in one software package.
Asure ID Software
This is by far one of the most popular software choices, and another industry leader. You can choose from several different products to match your needs. Assure ID Express and Assure ID Solo, are designed for small to medium size business environments, looking for affordable, easy to use solutions, with all the options they’ll need. Asure software packages will do just that. Asure Enterprise is for larger organizations with more elaborate needs. Exchange is an excellent choice of intuitive card designs, and it is also excellent if you are seeking exemplary data management.
EPI Suite Software
EPI is considered one of the most robust ID Photo card software packages on the market. EPI Lite has entry-level photo ID options including badges, and it’s perfect for small to medium size businesses. EPI Classic is excellent for medium size businesses that need to print hundreds of ID cards at one workstation. It is also an excellent choice if you need to duplex, encode barcodes, and other more complex tasks, while EPI Pro offers it all. There’s really nothing you can’t do with this software.
There are more photo ID software options, however these will get you started looking in the right direction. Don’t be afraid to ask the manufacturer or supplier if you have any questions, and don’t make a hasty decision. Like all sound business decisions, take your time and get what you need.

HP LaserJet Pro M1130 ? Everyday Print, Scan, Copy Machine
Posted on 11 July 2010.
The HP LaserJet Pro M1130 is part of a series HP has designed to be suitable for both home and office use. With various expanded versions of the product available with included hardware such as fax modems and network cards, the LaserJet Pro M1130 sits as the bare bones, base unit for the series, and is perfect for the individual user looking to add a full range of basic print, copy, and scan features to their hardware set, while keeping cost at a minimum.
With a flatbed design that does not include an automatic document feeder, the HP LaserJet Pro M1130 allows only for single copies and scans to be performed at one time. However, a flip top design makes for easy access and three dimensional scan capabilities for objects such as books or magazines. A full, legal sized document glass also allows for the maximum scan surface one would find on a personal MFC.
Though the HP LaserJet Pro M1130 does not include a fax machine or networking functions, its rudimentary print and copy features are excellent for the price range. No memory card expandability or external duplex options also reduce the overall flexibility of the unit, while keeping costs at a minimum. While additional paper storage is also not available, the unit’s 150 sheet input tray may prove to be enough for the single user.
Paper output capacity comes at a surprisingly large proportion to the input tray, with a 100 sheet face down bin incorporated into the device. With such a small input tray, an output tray this large almost doesn’t even make sense, though one could potentially find uses for it when taking advantage of the up to 99 maximum copies at once from a single source.
The scan features are very basic, and minimal. The device advertises a scan rate of up to 6 pages per minute but, without a built in automatic document feeder, this seems highly unlikely to be performed entirely by hand. Optical scanning resolution is high, at 1200 dots per inch, and a bit depth of 24 is also of decent quality. Convenient scan to e mail, scan to application, and scan to file options make for a high versatility level, but in a heartbreaking twist of fate, no dedicated controls for these features are mounted to the device, forcing users to make trips back and forth from the PC to operate scan functions.
Standard memory is quite low, at only 8 MBs, and is not expandable, yet processing speed is quite high, at 400 MHz. The HP LaserJet Pro M1130′s maximum monthly duty cycle of a very low 8,000 pages further solidifies the device’s stance as a light duty, personal printer, and with HP’s recommendation of only 250 to 2,000 sheets, high capacity output becomes even less of an option. The HP LaserJet Pro M1130 is a perfect device for one looking for a very well rounded unit at an affordable price, without all the bells and whistles that make some devices more complicated.

Best Free Pdf Print Driver Finder – Unique Download Tool !
Posted on 28 June 2010.
Today i would like to teach you how to search and get a pdf print driver without risking your pc by visiting suspicious driver download websites. Downloading drivers from anonymous or uncertain websites can make your windows vulnerable to unwanted risks like trojan horses, worms, etc. Read the next few paragraphs to discover a state-of-the-art and powerful technique which will let you – in no time – pin down your required driver(s).
Click here to get a pdf print driver now!
Many pc users aren’t fully aware of the reality that driver creators constantly modify their drivers because of bugs, supporting system updates, incompatibility issues, … Did you waste a lot of time the last time you searched for one driver or another required to run something on your computer? For those who aren’t aware, the driver is a specialized program which interfaces with a predetermined software application or a hardware component. A new solution that i recently discovered enables you to find the most up-to-date and compatible version of almost any possible driver. A very handy utility, it can routinely (and you don’t even need to be involved!) search and update all your computer’s drivers at regular intervals – you’ll always be up to date.
Your drivers are essential parts of a pc and require occasional care, exactly the same way that you manage and safeguard your windows system. As far as i found, this important system can manage an abundance of hardware devices from thousands of manufacturers because of a highly advanced driver recognition capability. Should you choose to install drivers manually, avoid unnecessary hassle and worry and check to see that these drivers are going to be suitable with the windows ver. you have installed.
As you can see, knowing how or what to do to get a pdf print driver doesn’t need to be a lengthy and complicated and even dangerous proposition as it used to be. Keep in mind that it’s possible for one small corrupted driver to produce some significant difficulties and possibly even crash your windows os. All that’s left is for you to “test drive” one of these utilities – find out how it goes about locating and updating whatever driver(s) you happen to be in need of. Surely the time is not far off when many windows users will obtain one of these easy-to-use programs and add them right away to their computer’s arsenal. Regardless of your maintenance strategy, i can’t advise you strongly enough to use this utility to replace your corrupted drivers; it can be done in less than 2 minutes from now.

Print Driver Corruption Fixer – Unique Download Tool !
Posted on 25 June 2010.
If you’re planning to download an intact print driver and get it installed on your computer, it’s an excellent idea to go about it very methodically. It’s a fact that average pc users struggling with errors haven’t realized the fact that these are often due to a case of drivers that have become corrupted. In this article you’ll learn about a very user-friendly and efficient solution which will give you the power to locate the exact driver you need.
Click here to download an intact print driver now!
I believe that most pc users aren’t fully aware of the truth that driver designers continuously come up with updates to their drivers because of bugs, supporting system updates, supporting new devices, etc. How long did it take you as you looked for information on a specific driver(s) for a component of your pc? Many of you probably don’t understand what a driver does – a driver is a type of program that performs as the “middle man” between a hardware component (usually) and the programs that use it. Now there’s an easy to use system which scans all your software and hardware components, instantly and effortlessly (on your part) loading or updating the drivers that your components need to run properly. You can set this tool to routinely (and you don’t even need to be involved!) scan and update your entire pc’s drivers at regular intervals – you’ll always be up to date.
If you think about it, we really don’t have the required “free time” to keep on top of an abundance of drivers. As far as i found, this important system can manage an abundance of hardware devices from thousands of manufacturers due to its one-of-a-kind driver identification technique. I strongly advise you against installing drivers which were obtained from unknown web pages – they might ‘infect’ your computer with viruses and spyware.
With the help of one of these applications, the searching process for a reliable way to download an intact print driver should no longer be a difficult and drawn-out or potentially unsafe job the way it once was. The voice of experience says: if you find yourself dealing with windows problems, the best thing to do is replace your drivers – this simple step will normally clear up these troubles. The next step, now that you’ve been introduced to this method, is to “test drive” it for yourself – you may just find even more advantages that i forgot to point out. To be sure, we have to take many things into consideration whether we use our computers a lot or a little; the topic at hand (downloading drivers) is worthy of some close examination. Although there is much more to tell about this new solution, i think this brief overview has been useful to your understanding of the potential that it offers.

Windows 7 Offers Enhanced Print Management
Posted on 28 January 2010.
Microsoft’s latest Windows 7 operating system includes improved features including print migration enhancement, printer driver isolation, print management snap-in improvements, client-side rendering performance improvements, and XML paper specification print path improvements. Location aware printing has also been introduced keeping in view the end-users.
Though print migration wizard was also introduced in Windows Vista, the feature on Windows 7 offers greater flexibility and advanced error handling. The configuration information can be restored for print servers in backup. Earlier, printer driver component failure was one of the support issue. Windows 7 also supports print drivers. The user can also prevent a faulty printer driver to perform printing function, as he can configure printer driver component to work in isolation, separate from the printer spooler process.
Print management snap-in improvement provides you improved printing system stability as it allows you to manage your print servers and print drivers better. You can view all the installed print drivers on your network. With increased CSR frequency, the overall printing performance has been improved which in turn also reduces network load.
With XPS, your data can be preserved through complete print system. It also helps you to replace the document presentation language, a print spooler format and a page description language. The default printer setting introduced in Windows 7 is location aware. The user can connect to different network as a default printer which allows the user to access the printer from different location. You can set the default printer for home and a different default printer set for office use. Once you have done this, your laptop will automatically select the required default printer.
