Re-using Paper

Submitted by Debbie M on February 27, 2008 - 07:17.

I print almost everything on the backs of used paper using a laser printer with no problems at all. I wonder if it's because I use the manual feed. I think the paper doesn't have to go through so many twists and turns that way.

Almost everything I print is a draft for someone to edit or just goes in my own files, so I just put a big X through the back side (so it's not confusing!) and print what I want on the front.

A note: some of these ideas are about taking things that would be wasted otherwise. But extra electricity and water would not be wasted otherwise.
