If I’m not mistaken, the two most common usages for portable laptops are word processing and e-mail. But more and more now, I hear about people filling their reading needs with e-books. But if you’re one of these people, you’ve surely noticed a few problems. Most notably, after a while your eyes begin to hurt. Well, FinePrint can help you with that – by printing out your e-books!

I’m sure you’ll say now that your printer with its drivers can do this. But FinePrint does that and more. See, it has the ability to customize how many pages are printed out on one sheet of paper. Most regular printer software is limited to one page per sheet. FinePrint lets you print up to 8 pages per sheet. Also, you can print front and back – meaning you can get a maximum 16 pages of your book on one sheet of paper. Of course for many e-books this will result in incredibly small text. To further save on ink, you can choose to disable the images, instead only printing the text portions of the pdf or e-book. It’s also extremely easy to install and use – once installed, you just use File / Print like usual.

If this sounds like your cup of tea, check out FinePrint over at http://www.fineprint.com. You can get a fully functional trial version for free here! The only caveat is that it prints a small tag on every sheet – if you’re doing extremely formal documents you should go for the full version. If you’re just a student though, this is a great option for saving on paper and ink! It’s a fantastic printing tool for your portable laptop!
