Depends on how much your copy contractor charges.  Around here, it's 
not hard to find copies for 3 cents per side, including paper.  Paper 
is generally at least 1 cent per sheet for anything you'd care to 
use, more likely around 1.5 cents.  You'd be doing very well to print 
an average black and white side for as little as 2 cents using decent 
toner, NOT even taking into account the wear to the printer.  Also in 
favor of the copy place, I prefer spiral binding to 3-hole binders -- 
MUCH fewer problems with pages tearing out.

Note that there may be a fair amount of the manual you don't feel the 
need to have in hard copy at the bench, if you think about it.  This 
could substantially reduce the cost, however one chooses to make the copies.

Finally, I'm a big fan of large schematic diagrams -- in my opinion, 
11 x 17" is just the starting point, and I've had lots of D-size 
prints made over the years.

Best regards,

Don
