How to save on toner and inks without diminishing printing volumes?

Printer.com decided to tackle the problem of saving on toner and inks without lowering printing jobs. It turned out that fonts can play an important role in how much toner and ink is spent on printing. Printer.com says one can actually save up to 31% on ink and toner just by picking the right font.

For the test to prove this theory, a Canon Pixma MP 210 was taken to simulate home printing, and a Brother HL-2140 was used to simulate a business environment.

Arial, the most popular font, was used as the zero measurement in the tests. Century Gothic was established to be the winning font allowing the maximum saving on toner and ink.

See the comparative table published on printer.com as to the most economical fonts in terms of printing.
