Many people have sought out solutions such as refilling the ink cartridges or printing to a PDF file instead <A href="http://whatsonmypc.wordpress.com/2008/11/23/using-a-virtual-pdf-printer-to-save-paper-and-ink%E2%80%A6/">[see article]</A>. One solution that is easier than both is learning how to print your documents in “draft” mode.  You will increase the life expectancy of your cartridges and save money. You will find that draft mode is sufficient for most printing needs with minimal loss in quality. I would also like to add, if you are printing photographs, I suggest you take them to a local photo kiosk or use one of the online photo processing services.  It eliminates a whole lot of frustration and the quality of the prints are much better (in my opinion).</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://whatsonmypc.wordpress.com/2009/03/03/saveink/"><STRONG>How to print in draft mode?</STRONG></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/E48A0E46-61FA-44FD-9FA7-5F172634ACC7/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
