Method and system for printing a print job using a memory device

A docking station for a wireless mouse includes an output for communicating with a computer and a mouse detector for detecting when the mouse is docked in the docking station. The docking station is configured to transmit a signal to the computer to automatically deactivate the computer when the mouse is docked in the docking station.

A system includes an operating mode in which the system detects requests to print nearly-blank pages and suppresses their printing. The detection and suppression may occur in a computer or other host device, in a printer, or in an intermediate device. A nearly-blank page may be identified in any of multiple ways. The mode may optionally be switched off so that nearly-blank pages are printed. The mode may optionally apply to only the last page in a print job.
