  • Always use double-sided printing
  • Reduce the margins and font size on your papers/projects
  • Use Print Preview and only print the pages you need
  • Print multiple PowerPoint slides on one page. Under Print Settings, you can change the print layout to "Handouts" and designate the number of slides - up to 9 - you want to appear on each page. PaperCut will only count that one side of the page rather than the number of slides that appear on it. -
  • Collaborate using electronic documents whenever possible. Use email, CourseSite, or Lehigh's Google Docs to create, share, and edit documents.
  • Check the printer status before trying to print more than once
  • Pick up your print jobs as soon as you print; don't wait to get them later or they may get placed in the recycling container.
  • Think before you print! Do I really need to print this email, Webpage, etc?
