At U of Waterloo, here, you can print your files on a Canon CLC-400 Colour
Laser Copier. They charge $1.00 for 8.5x11, and $1.50 for 11x17 (That's Canuck
bucks, so around $0.70 and $1.05 US)
The quality is pretty good, although the black toner is highly reflective; it's
distracting if you have a light source behind you.
If anyone is really hard up for posters and want me to print something out for
them, or can't get a price this low, contact me and we can make arrangements.
(no H stuff, though; the ladies in the Department of Computer Services like me
and I don't want to get on their bad side ;-)
BTW, apparently students printing out anime posters make up a big chunk of their
business. Neat, huh.
