Cheap printing in L.A.

July 11, 2008 11:19 AM

How do I print out 400 pages in L.A. on the cheap?

I'm new to Los Angeles and need a cheap way to print about 400 pages from a Word document. Due to a toner/printer debacle my printer won't work for another 8-10 business days and I'd rather get this thing printed and sent out sooner rather than later. Kinkos charges something like 95 cents per page for printing, making it prohibitively expensive. Is there a place where printing charges are more on par with photocopying charges?

Yes! Maziar at Script Copier is AWESOME.

http://www.scriptcopier.com/ He charges around 2 cents a printed page and his service is amazing. He's at 6404 Wilshire, and highly responsive to email.

Wow. A quick win for visual mechanic. I may never print out large documents at home again.

I don't! I print all my screenplays there because he's cheaper than using my own printer.

Just an update -- Thin Lizzy posted the question, but I'm the one who needed the service. And Script Copier is awesome. He printed up my manuscript, had it boxed and ready to go, and even had a "requested materials" sticker to place on the Fed Ex box so my mss wouldn't get lost in the slush pile. Almost 400 pages, shipped from LA to NYC, and for just twenty dollars. Awesome service. Thanks, visual mechanic.
