PRINTING

**The Juggler** · 18-04-2010, 09:39 AM

I have a printer at home that prints good, fairly high quality photos, documents. However, it's started being a bit 'shaky' when printing text etc. I've got something really important to print off and can't risk having shaky words/charts.

Anyone know where you can take files on a stick to be printed off for you? Somewhere not too expensive hopefully as I have 73 pages needing printed.

Thanks

I used a Pronto Print shop recently to print off my poster and that was from a memory stick. Have a look in the phone book for printers/print shops to see if you have any local to you. I found that quite often the smaller businesses will do it cheaper than the large chains. Failing that I have a good relationship with my children's school and I know they would do it for me. I would provide the paper and give a small donation for ink. That would prob work out much cheaper. I am also sure my NCMA development work/network co-ordinator would do the same sort of thing.

Hope you get it sorted

that's a great idea.

thanks hon. might ask the children's centre/school, I can take my paper and give them a donation. Never thought of that! I think it's because i've got a bog standard printer - I need a laser jet type thing for this.

my kiddies school will print out for me when i am desperate and i pay 5p a sheet.

staples will also print for you, they do charge a fee for putting a stick into their system, this covers them against any viruses that may be transfered, i cant remember what the cost is though.

thanks hon, going to try staples if school say no. I'm getting the document spiral bound there too so can maybe do it all in one go.
