    Does anyone know a good place to print pdf files?
    I need to print around 700 A4 pages, but the cheapest price I found is 1,5 - 2 pesos per page and they are using a simple printer i guess... so it will cost me around 1400 pesos, but I was looking for some cheaper options. Usually modern xerox machines can be connected to a computer and not only copy, but also print files. I found a place with lots of xeroxes, but they just don't have a computer))
    I also found some professional book printing service, but they don't want to make just one copy - it will be not profitable for them.

    Does anyone have some experience with such things?
    Thank you!

    I don't think you are going to beat 1.5 - 2 pesos a page. That is dirt cheap considering the price of ink and paper.

    But they do xerox copy for less than 0.5 peso!)
    I have experience in printing books in other countries, normally it should cost about 1 - 1.50 dollars for 100 pages without binding.

    Scooby's

    We have always found Scooby's to be good at PDF, Scanning and most things of the nature you require. Try the one opposite Lee Plaza next to Chow King. If they can't help your large job, I am sure they can and will point you in the right Direction.

    Across the Supermarket of Lee Plaza is a print shop & internet Cafe. It's called 2R 2A. I heard it has the lowest printing rate.

    You want to go where all the UNI students get in done. Try TripleA or one of the other shops along the road fronting portal. I think right next to chantilly. Most students get their books printed and binded there.
