Okay, I have to share this one:
I misread my schedule for work today and showed up FIVE HOURS EARLY. They didn't want me here then, so I had some time to kill. I bicycled over to my friendly local community college and went into the public lab.
Seeing it pretty much deserted, I sat down to print myself a copy of OVA. This takes a while. (132 pages!)
The total damage:
PDF Version of OVA: $9.95
Cheap plastic folder to carry it home in, because you don't have anything else to use: $0.97
Getting the printer to print a 43 meg PDF, double-sided: 2 1/2 hours.
Holding a hardcopy of OVA in your hands, and admitting how much of a geek you are: Priceless

Killing Time
Three Rules of Anime:
1) Never pick a fight with an old man.
2) If it's cute, kill it now and save yourself a lot of time and effort.
3) Learn a musical instrument; after that, you can do anything.

Haha, thanks for sharing, Wanderer! It's good to see people making use of the high resolution. ^^ Everything turn out okay?
And more importantly, did you use your Art of Invisibility +5 to escape with no one noticing you just used 130 pages of paper and no telling how much ink without paying a dime? -.o

Everything came out fine in the end. The Lab Aide didn't care what I was doing, but some of the other lab patrons got annoyed. Thankfully the laser printer does double-sided without too much fuss.

It looks just fine on regular paper. Adobe automatically centered it on the page, which looks a little odd but okay. And the extra-large margins 
give lots of room for the three-hole punch.
