As you may know, the new PrestoConnect software has some great built in functionality, letting you send reminders and more to your loved ones. If you haven't seen the new service yet, read the full review by clicking here. Using Templates With Your Presto Here at PrestoPlace, we've decided to take it a step further and give Presto lovers a chance to share their favorite "templates" for use with Presto. We've started off with a few simple and very useful designs of our own: an emergency contact list and a shopping list , both in Microsoft Word format. Head on over to our downloads area to check them out and download for yourself. Once you get them on your computer, you can edit them in Microsoft Word, and if you don't have Word, any word processor that can open .DOC files should work fine (such as OpenOffice , which is a free download.) Fill in the customized information in the template with your word processor, convert it to a PDF file, and send it via email attachment to your loved one's Presto Printing Mailbox - it's that easy (If you need help on converting Word files to PDF, click here.)...

5 Great Reasons to Give A Presto Printing Mailbox This Holiday

PrestoPlace Team — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 22:59:45 GMT

I'm not sure about you, but we find that it's always difficult to shop for our grandparents for the holidays. Fact is, a lot of elderly folks really aren't into all the new stuff you can get; they're not out Black Friday shopping, and they just don't need an iPod or a new toaster. Usually, when you ask your grandparents (or other elderly relatives) what they want for Christmas, you often get the answer... "I just want to see my family." Of course, this is usually a free thing, so it still leaves the dilemma of what to buy! This is where the Presto Printing Mailbox steps in. Here's some great reasons why Presto is a better gift than ever for your loved ones this year. #1. Presto Gives The Gift of Family This time, when your grandparents only ask for "you" for the holidays... give them a Presto. In essence, you'll be giving them EVERYBODY, since your whole family can keep in touch easily using the Presto. It will be more important to them than they realize to have their whole family communicating with them every day. #2. The Presto Service Is A Good Value Of course, whenever you...
