The InkSaver software program is designed to help you save money by cutting down on the amount of ink your ink-jet printer uses. It does this by intercepting your print job on its way to the printer and allocating leaner, meaner settings for the amount of ink used for the output.

It’s a nice idea, and the company claims no performance hit, but I’ll remain a little sceptical until I’ve actually seen the $29.99 product in action. And it will only work with Epson, HP and Canon printers.
