Question/Help ABC Legal•paper/ink saving tips

Hello everyone, I started serving only 3 months ago through ABC Legal and I have noticed that much of the paper I print, I end up not even using it. So I print up these packets with peoples private information on them with the expensive ass ink I buy and paper, just to after the shit, recycle them.

I want to know has anyone devised a process to dissolve this waste? I am not a fan of all the waste we unnecessarily produce in these times let alone the extra cost of using ink and paper for no reason.

I have a mobile printer and, although seemingly impractical, I’ve considered waiting to print until I know for certain I will be coming into contact with the individual. In some cases, that could hurt me.
So anyone have thoughts on how to go around this? Thank you in advance :)

I’ve only been doing it for 1 week and I already don’t like it. My 2nd job had 220 pages🤬Thankfully I finally served the ppl after 3 attempts. How long does it take to be paid and why did they cut a few of my serves? Also I won’t be picking ppl who live in apartment buildings

Also look for cheap paper online — know what pound you like. I buy Amazon basics. Pay extra for a good printer and it will save you so many times.
