Have you heard? There is a font you can use that will enable you to print using 20% less ink! Even with fonts normal to medium/large size you can't see the little holes in the letters.
I must admit that I store most of my data electronically, but I print out some stuff for mailing samples. I am planning to use it when I print out labels and mailing wrappers to save ink. You can download it free from this website . . .

There are a few more ways to save - one of which I have used for YEARS. That is reduce the size of the margins to get more data on a sheet of paper and (if you can get away with it) print on both sides of the paper to save even more. I use my printer in "Fast Draft" mode most of the time and it uses WAY less ink - probably 50% less at least and it prints out so fast it literally spits the pages out with enough momentum to eject them out onto the floor if I don't catch them!
Save ink - save paper - who's going to complain about that other than the manufacturers of the ink and paper? Frugal is green - Green is frugal! And it is very easy, too.
