Default "eco" option to reduce paper (1st page only, max margin, font, re.

People are lazy, so they don't think on the best option before printing, i
suggest creating an option to use printers on a more "eco" way by default.
for example more and more people reply on each other mail, and we don´t
print, but when we do, generally we only need the last message and we get all
the mail (7, 8 pages to waste if we manage to stop before the 20 get out), if
an "eco" option could be select, only the 1st page would came out, (or the
one on the screen), with maybe other setings like using margins to the max, a
smaller font with readability, print both faces whenever available, etc

Outlook 2007 SP2 allows you to print specific pages, in older versions you
can control it in other ways. See http://www.slipstick.com/mail1/print.asp
for more information.
