Not having a printer at home is a common issue. Whether you need a form, a contract, coursework, or other documents on paper, there are several practical options in the UK.
1. Use Your Local Library
Many libraries offer printing services for a small fee per page. You usually need to be a member, and in some cases you may need to book a PC in advance. Keep in mind that opening hours and queues can be limiting, especially close to deadlines.
2. Use a High-Street Print Shop
Stores such as Rymans, Staples, or independent print shops will print documents from a USB drive or email. This is handy for one-off jobs, but it does require travelling, waiting, and sometimes paying a premium for small runs.
3. Use Online Print-and-Post
The most convenient option is an online print-and-post service. With printle, you can upload your document securely, choose print options such as black and white or colour, single or double-sided, and set the number of copies.
