Have you ever been to a website and wanted to print an article and tried but you only found way too much ads, junk on the side, or it just doesn’t print correctly. Well fear not my friend because Print Friendly is here to save you. Print Friendly will take that article and remove all that unwanted nonsense. Not only that but you can email it or create a PDF. Heck, you can even remove parts of the article if you like. Print Friendly is easy, reliable, and free. Check out the video above to get all the friendly goodness. There are other services out there that offer similar features, but I find Print Friendly a little easier to use and that can make your day a lot easier.
