Sending to print = going to nearby bookstore/copy-center and giving them the PDF, so they can print it and make two bound copies (I already ordered the book covers, which should be already prepared). No large scale printing runs (yet ! ).
Heh, I remember printing my bachelors thesis. The uni colour printers cost 30p/sheet. So a 70 page document was going to cost £21 per copy! And they wanted 2 copies!!!

BS I thought. Fortunately the uni printers where set up in such a way that your print job got sent to a central server, the monies deducted from your account then the job was sent to the printer.

After a bit of fiddling I figured out the IP address of the printer. I would then print my document to a file. Then I would use the LPR command from CMD and just send the print job strait to the printer.

Boom!

Free printing!
