Hello everyone...
Several months ago, I posted a question on where to bind lots of papers, but now, since I'm not in school, I'd also need some informations on where to print a lot, like 20-200 (or more) pages. There are many internetn cafes, but these guys charge 50c a page, I can do it much cheaper at home, but it still isn't it. Printing 100 pages at home isn't fun. Paper and ink. Does anyone know some kind of printing company or similar one, to handle my needs?

Thanks,

Have you tried Kinkos? I think they are now called FedExKinkos.

Staples will print stuff out. That's where I go for printing and binding. I print 200 pages or more. Nothing big to them I guess.

Umm... they never questionned whether or not it was legal either.

That would be just amazingly good If I could print stuff out at staples. I'm leaving for a bookstore soon, so I'll visit staples and ask for that.
JasonRox, and how was printing there?

Thanks everyone for replies, I'm having fun with fedexkingong right now.

It was fine. You simply put it on a floppy disc or something and they just print it out. It was a smooth transaction for me. I hope the same goes for you.
