Configure your office printer or copy machine so it prints on both sides of the page.

 


Cambia su impresora de oficina o máquina de copia de lo que se imprime en ambos lados de la pagina.

my printer at home is configured like that.  I also get all my bills through e-mail, so I went completely paperless there.

Quoting Pancha1122:

That's great. Mine ran out of ink & I have yet to replace it. :-/ but when I print I like to use double sides. If its something not important, I just write it on a scrap of paper so I'm not wasting both paper and ink. Either way it seems the options to go paperless are everywhere these days.

How about recycling printer cartridges? Has anyone ever done that?

Ive taken mine in to Staples. They give rebates or coupons depending on how many.

But I've also seen kits that are for refilling the cartridge that way you don't have to throw away or buy another. I haven't tried that yet though. I'm not sure how well they work.
