CleanPrint - save the planet one sheet at a time

CleanPrint is a Chrome extension that lets you save and/or print exactly what you need from the web - helping to save the planet one sheet at a time. Add CleanPrint to Google Chrome from the Chrome Web Store.

• Selecting only the content you need, eliminating unwanted ads
• Deleting unrelated text or images
• Increasing or decreasing font size
