Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Is it just me or does £1.99 per page sound excessive for scanning a document and putting it on a flash drive?

I needed to send an eight page document via email to someone overseas that required my signature at the bottom.

There would have been no printing involved and the only graft involved would have been using a couple of fingers to push a couple of buttons.

It felt like daylight robbery to me and I will therefore be using my work scanner tomorrow. Luckily I have an understanding boss. I would have preferred to send it today though and was prepared to pay a nominal amount for the service. it makes you wonder about their charges for other services. I certainly will not be visiting their shop again.

Are you saying it would have cost you £15.92 for eight pages ?
The Print Gallery, 583 Green Lanes will scan you an 8-page A4 for £5.50.
Yep £15.92! Thanks Hugh. I'll use them next time round.
Wow!

Come round and do it for nowt I am in til 5:15 !

I have never mastered the art of printing pics at home though, mine look rubbish ... so is The Print Gallery any good for cheap photo printing ?

I really couldn't say. Anyone else used them?

I always use Foto Plus on Park Road in Crouch End as they are so good and reliable (plus they have a loyalty scheme)

The main thing with printing from inkjets is to match the ink and paper settings. For anything worthwhile I use Canon paper and Canon inks in my Canon printer, and choose the right type of paper from the long drop-down menu. For casual stuff, cheap paper and lookalike inks are OK but they can mess up the printer, really, that's not just a manufacturers myth so I switch them back again afterwards. Can get messy, re-sealing ink cartridges. It may end up cheaper to get them printed in a shop if you're only doing a few from time to time.
