KAI printing

I have been printing the KAI in 8.5 x 11" on my simple laser printer, it is working ok.

However, I got the template for drilling the missing rudder holes (RV-15) today, and it came with a full size color printout - very nice!

What is the best service / bang for the buck in terms of printing the KAI in actual size (+/- color)?

I might consider it going forward if the cost is not ridiculous. I did a quick search but wondered if you all had any recommendations.
 
I'm not sure what the "best" service is but I use FedEx Office and I'm happy with their service. Lots of options, good website and they are fast.

This is what I used for mine: https://www.bestvaluecopy.com/
 
A local Mom & Pop print shop is 58 cents per page for 11x17 single sided color. I punch my own holes to put them in three ring binders from Amazon.
 
It's all about who's in your neighborhood. We're close to a UPS store that I can e-mail files to, get 11x17 prints. Great for the circuit diagrams.

Same,except I take a USB. They can print pretty much anything any size up to banners and posters.
 
I use printdirtcheap.com for my KAI’s. Great service and fast shipping. They’ll even mirror the .pdf file to use for the right wing and elevator images.
 
Another source for printing that I use is Staples. (I believe Office Depot also does this.) For printing 11" x 17" they have copiers that are self service which helps lower the cost per page. For larger C or D size prints, they can do them in color as well (they call them blue prints) but the cost per page is several dollars.
