Where to go for cheap printing?

My lecturers ask us to print out their slides, only .. they're kinda a lot. Can anyone recommend a place for cheap printing? I looked at the Digital Printing Centre place at unimelb but they didn't have anything related to their rates.

We always had a little icon on the bottom right of the screen telling us how much money we had left in our printing accounts. If we didn't have that, I would've printed all my prac exams at school.

Hielly, do you think you could print out some lecture slides for me? :P

Theres a printing shop next to Encompass. Its quite cheap there, and they give free printing (60 pages) to new members. You have to buy a pre paid printcard (like $20, $50, $100). The higher value print cards would allow you to print for 4 cents per page (around that much). I just dont like how they charge for the use of the computers though...

Yeah I called up Office works and they were like OKAY WE CHARGE 5.95 TO OPEN A FILE FROM YOUR USB AND THEN 10CENTS PER PAGE GR8 DEAL!!. I'll check that place out though. Thanks!

Uhh, just buy a laser b&w printer, and print at home. It's roughly $100 and you could print upto 6000 pages on the first toner.

Once, I quickly opened a file, print, and requested to end transaction, I think I paid 12 cents extra... I think it is 1 cent per 30 secs...
