Default Logbook Pro Question

I was wondering if anyone used printing service outside of the LP's own service. I tried to print some of the formats at my home printer just to see how they turn out and I didn't like them.
My goal is to get it printed professionally at OfficeMax, FedexOffice, etc. and then get a nice (but not as expensive as LP's own) binder..

Thanks..

I always go to Fedex to print it out and have them spiral bind it and print it on green paper. It was $18 the first time and a couple bucks every time I add to it. They put a plastic cover and back on it as well. I always get compliments on it.

I do the same, Fedex office spiral bound. Easy to add to and looks great.

You guys are still printing out logbooks?

I switched over to an audio format about a year ago. I got Morgan Freeman to narrate my entire logbook for a little over $200. Makes a good impression and definitely stands out.

I used logbooksolutions.com for my binder and printing. Cheaper than LBP and it came out looking great.

I printed myself. I have a laserjet printer that does auto-duplexing (two-sided printing) which made it a lot easier. I printed to a pdf file first then printed the pdf file. It took a few tries to get the settings right but since I was printing to pdf I wasn't wasting any paper as I was working it out. I had it spiral bound at FedEx Office for under $6.

You really should have spent the extra $50 for James Earl Jones!
