Adobe's LeanPrint automatically minimises

Software giant Adobe has launched new software that reduces waste and cuts printing costs by an average of 40%, it is claimed. Adobe's LeanPrint automatically minimises the amount of ink used to print documents and so reduces office print bills by 40%, laboratory tests show.

Toshiba is so impressed with the software that its America Business Solutions has agreed to partner with Adobe and distribute LeanPrint to its customers across the continent.

Senior director and general manager of Adobe's Print and Scan Business, Raman Nagpal, says, "Adobe has always prided itself on environmentally conscious behaviour, from its LEED Platinum certified buildings to its carbon offsets."
