Quote from coupon*clipper : You can just let them hang in your printer?? Like layaway for coupons?? You're not a nut, that's awesome! How do I do this too? I'm a nut b/c I print a bajillion of them "just in case" and then dump most of them in the recycle box once they're expired. What happens if they ran out of prints on, say, coupons dot com. Are yours still hanging in your 'puter?

Oh, sorry, thought this was common knowledge as I just came up with this myself a few years ago thinking everyone must do it lol


It does not matter what coupons.com or other site does, its in your print queue as long as its there its yours. I am going to PM you instructions.

I'd love the instructions too. I just recycled dozens of unused expired IPs. What a waste of ink and paper.

Thanks so much!

I would like the instructions PMed as well! Thanks in advance.

LOL you can post it in the thread so you dont have to PM 8 million people. The S&S isnt all crazy like alot of threads we like OT here.. Heck it has to do w shopping right hehee

Can't we just post the instructions in the thread? It's very basic how to do that. Just disconnect your printer cable from your computer. Print the coupon. It will not print since the printer is offline, but it wil show up in your printer queue. Go to your printer settings and put that printer job on pause by right-clicking on it and selecting "pause." Note down the date/time, size, name&value of the coupon, perhaps on a notepad near the computer or in a text document on your computer desktop. Then when you want to print it, just go to your printer settings, right-click on the printer job and select "resume," and it will resume printing. That's it for doing it the low-tech basic way. Of course, there are probably more high-tech ways. Oh... Is that what everybody is pm'g about? If so, someone pm me too!

Here, here!

Yes, as posted above is how to do it. I did not want to bend rules or anything. Here is what I have PM'd all. I don't disconnect cables or write anything down.



Here is the eastiest method and how I do it to leave coupons in print queue to print later.

first turn off your printer. Then print a coupon from a site. Look in your print queue and first pause what you printed. Then what I do is go into document print properties and name it and if I know an expiration date too, if not just a name of what is printing, like suddenly salad .55 or whatever you want. You may have to play a little or something might be called a little different on your printer.

Once coupon is paused in queue, you can turn printer on and if you need to print something else no problem, paused one just stays there until you either resume it or delete it.

When I want to print it I just hit resume in print queue and there it is. I am happy to say I came up with this a few years ago on my own.

PM if you have questions.

Quote from chipilota : I can have 60 or more hanging in my print queue at any one time, sometimes more or sometimes less. I don't print unless I know I am going to use them. I was wondering if I am the only nut that does this or if other do this or something similar?

You are not the only nut! I have had as many as 80+ paused in my print queue! Same as you, I try not to print until I or someone else is going to use that IP.

Quote from chipilota : I don't disconnect cables [snip]

I disconnect my printer cable because if I don't, that printer will automatically turn on when I send the print job. But I guess YMMV.
