The Print Button

Since I have been a road warrior for the past several years,..my reliance on printed paper has become less and less. No physical printer drivers are even loaded on my work computer! I do have a free easy to use program call dopdf which simply outputs files into pdf.

I challenge you to examine your paper usage in your home and your office. Ask yourself: Do I really need to print that? Could I just save the file on my computer, backup drive, or a thumb drive and not worry about cluttering up my office with more paper? Does my client really want to deal with paper either? Why am I faxing, when I should be emailing a confirmation, quote, or other document? Really the only use for paper is if you are trying to pull a George Costanza around the office and need to carry some paper and walk quickly to appear busy.

So try it,...Unplug your printer for 24 hours, then a week. Soon your weekly trips to buy ink will be long gone, you will need less filing cabinets, have more desk space, and your life will be more organized and electronically searchable.
