Where can I get a large print job done?

I have hundreds of pages I need to print from multiple word files (practice exams)

Where would be the cheapest place to print them off and how much am I looking at approximately?

i was gonna print them elsewhere, but if you buy your ink off ebay, then it is probably just as cheap to do it at home...

it can probably do ~4-5 pages a minute.  nothing great, but it's not too bad.

ink off ebay is cheap as.  you can get 3 of each colour (so 12 inks in total) for <$30

I've got a laser printer, but when the catridge finished I never bought a new one again. There like $110.

Haha I print off my stuff at school- the printer there is SO GOOD, also it prints double sided so you don't waste too much paper :P We used to have a printing balance but I don't think it works- I have $0 and it still prints out 574893 for me :D

This.

And the black ink costs way more than the colour.

Yeah i got a $500 shoddy inkjet at home, dont know why mum always bought the expensive ones that do the same as a cheap ass printer.
Cartriges are like $30 for just one too, and there are 4 cartridges :s
I'll start buying them on ebay now ;D
