When printing off a large report or research paper, take advantage of any printing services your school may offer. Many universities will offer printing services that are financed through student fees as part of tuition. The printers they use are designed to handle high volumes of work and are extremely energy efficient. These school sponsored programs also use recycled paper to cut down on cost and the impact their program has on the environment.
