Steve, that's a pretty good price.... CH Printing & Graphics is indeed a 
printer, and we used them for printing as opposed to copying, but I think 
they may also do copying. The Ink Spot Copy Shop in Carrboro (West Main St.) 
is also a little copy shop that produced good work when we used them, 
although DP&G (where I worked) was a copy shop as well so we used Ink Spot 
only when we were backed up, overrun, or broken down. I don't remember the 
pricing scheme. I agree that Kinko's and Staples are crazy expensive. ...  I 
usually can tell the difference between printed and copied quite easily. 
Although some of the newer and bigger (and most expensive) copy machines have 
fusing methods that help maintain the color medium on the paper, it's still 
very hard to get certain paper to hold copy toner; the same paper driven 
through a real press can produce an impressive product! I could go deeper 
into the process, explaining how the heat of the press helps drive the wet 
ink into the the paper while copiers can only lay their dry toner on the 
surface... but I won't.... Copy on!   ~B

Hey B.
I just got off of the phone with accent imaging off of hwy 70.
What kinkos and Staples quoted my customer at $7.79 accent 
quoted $3.50. I've used them for years and I'm silly happy with 
them. Keep in mind it's not printing but copying. I've found it hard
to tell the difference in the final product however.
