If you’ve been jonesing for an iPad, April 3 is the date you can finally satisfy that craving. Apple said today will start selling its ballyhooed tablet computer on that day. Pre-orders begin next week, on March 12.

April 3 is a Saturday, so expect anxious early adopters to line up overnight Friday. There had been rumors afloat that the iPad would go on sale on March 26, and that those camping out would get a free gift. A freebie was not mentioned in Apple’s news release, which refers to the iPad as “magical and revolutionary”.

The models being sold on April 3 will only connect to the Net via Wi-Fi. If you want an iPad that works over AT&T’s 3G network, you’ll have to wait until late April, according to Apple. No firm date was given for 3G model sales, but you will be able to pre-order them on March 12 as well.

Apple unveiled its iPad on Jan. 27, promising the Wi-Fi models would go on sale in 60 days. The April 3 date misses the mark a bit, but not by much.

The April 3 date is only for U.S. sales. Other countries will have to wait until late April.

I get pretty excited about saving money, and thanks to the recent economic downturn, everyone else seems to be in the same boat. These tips will help your printer supplies last longer, which saves money and it’s good for the environment besides.

1. Print in Black and White. Just because you have a color printer doesn’t mean you have to use color every time. In fact, I find that most of what I print looks just fine in black only, which saves on color print cartridges. This is especially important if you have a combined color cartridge, in which you have to replace the whole thing as soon as one of the three colors runs out.
2. Switch to Fast Draft mode. I lower my printer quality to fast draft as a default, which uses less ink. The prints are noticeably lower quality, but still completely legible – I just have to remember to switch to a higher quality for print-outs for clients or Christmas letters, etc. As a bonus, the printing is a lot faster.
3. Narrow your margins. Sounds a little nit-picky, but if you regularly print long documents, this can save paper.
4. Don’t print it. How many times have you printed something when it really wasn’t necessary? You can proofread on your screen, save files in on-line archives instead of file drawers, print just the first page if you don’t need the rest, and use print preview to prevent avoidable re-printing.
5. Print selection. In most software, including web browsers, you can just print the portion of the page that you need, without having to print a bunch of extra pages. In Internet Explorer, select the text or images you want to print and type CTRL + P or choose File: Print. When the print dialog box appears, make sure to choose Selection in the Page Range section before you click Print.
6. Use both sides of the paper. Once you’ve used one side of the paper, you can just flip it over and print on the other side: Voila! Green printing… I usually keep this type of paper in a stack next to the printer. If you’re really committed, you can save junk mail from companies and print on the other side. Warning: This could drive your spouse nuts. My husband hates this because invariably he ends up with something private or confidential on the back of something he printed at home and then took to work. Whoops.
7. Use recycled, refilled, or remanufactured ink cartridges. Any of these will save money, but printer manufacturers say that this can cause problems with your printer. Whether true or not, in my experience, if you call tech support and you are using a recycled dell printer ink cartridge, they are likely to blame that without delving further into the issue. I also noted that about 1 out of every 5 recycled cartridges I tried wouldn’t work at all. So, I do not use either of these methods – I’m just listing it here so that you know the consequences.
8. Do cost comparisons Good, old-fashioned smart shopping works well – on the internet, just type the part number of your ink cartridge into Google, e.g. hp c8721w. Watch for sales and use coupons, buy in bulk if it’s a good price, look at Costco, etc. I typically find that Costco is the best, so you’re pretty safe choosing that if you don’t have the time to make detailed comparisons. Warning: don’t stock up too far in advance, because many ink cartridges stop working when they are past the expiration date. If this happens, you can try rolling back the date on your computer, but that’s obviously quite a hassle.

I bought this Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II Inkjet-Printer last year because I wanted to level-up my brochure and catalogue business. Most of my clients wanted a brochure that featured more product images on it with very little text hype. Clients were also gearing up their marketing strategies by banking on product recall over marketing bylines. This PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II was a bit costly to start with but I decided to invest on it in order to survive a thriving business. I’m glad I did, because I was able to deliver the kind of brochure that my clients wanted, otherwise, I would be out of business by now.

I thought it’s about time that I do this printer a favor by writing a review about it. Not once since I bought it did I encounter any problem. Here are the features I banked on about PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II in order to save my brochure and catalogue business:

1. It’s a large format printer. It allows me to explore different brochure sizes and allows me to offer custom-sized ones. Printing can accommodate up to 13×19 width sizes. In fact there are two paper trays to support paper feeding, including the heavy stock materials.

2. Its 8-color ink system has widened the color choices available making products look every inch the same as the actual. The wide array of print settings lets me play with color usage and how I can best present products in their most eye-catching and detailed quality. In fact, my clients were actually delighted with the way the product images came out looking every inch the real thing and will serve its aim to impress instant product recognition or product recall.

3. The Auto Photo Fix- has given the models’ faces the correct color tones especially useful for brochures that promote cosmetic products. The optimal image correction ability of PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II’s built-in technology makes automatic adjustments to enhance flawless skin tones and features in its most convincing appearance.

4. The Ambient Light Correction, took away some of the load off my lighting problems whenever I took product photos. It saves me long hours of trying to adjust lighting no end especially when the weather is not agreeable.

5. It has this energy efficient features of 4in 4 or 2 in 1 printing where I can print multiple pages on a single page. As a business option, this is a great reduction in paper costs and energy. Inks are in individual cartridges making it possible to monitor ink usage, and cuts down on wastes from inherent residue-retention in cartridges.
