Oakland Copy & Print

Last minute printing for 40^th class reunion Castlemont Knights. Small Business Saturday I am happy to use local business I was in and out in 30 minutes.

These guys are a small privately owned family business that are community oriented establishment that work with there neighbors. I was desperate for a place to print out tickets for a reggae show tonight. They where closed but the light was on. Even said closed on Sunday’s. I knocked and asked they said yes and now me and my comrade have are tickets. Good people.

Great service and very reasonable price. It is always great to talk to Chitra.

I introduced myself as a first timer and the lady working helped me out! It was easy least and I made 360 copies. I was in and out in about 15 minutes. My copies were 3 cents each. Awesome pricing considering Hill Copy and Mail was 13 cents! Now I have a go to place for copies! Thank you!

I haven’t used their services, but I wanted to update everyone that the woman on the phone today said it is no longer $ 0.03 for b/​w copies over a 100 count, it is now $ 0.05 per copy.

Don’t let the bars on the door scare you off — this is a nice, family-​owned copy & print store. The inside is clean and bright. I came here to have a music score cut and rebound with a spiral binding. The price was quite reasonable ($ 7), and because the score had very little space between the musical notation and the original binding edge, the man who helped me let me see how far into the pages the cut would be to make sure I was OK with how much inner margin would be cut off. This was a nice gesture that a larger chain store probably wouldn’t have bothered with.

I’m all about shopping local because that’s what builds our communities. Oakland Copy and Print was actually not my first, or second, or top three choices to stop by for copying needs. My usual place was unfortunately closed on Saturdays and I really needed photocopies. I Unilocaled a couple of places nearby Oakland where I usually get it done and I didn’t find what I was looking for.
It extended my search to Berkeley, which I wasn’t trying to drive to. Oakland Copy and Print was in Oakland in the Laurel District, a place I’m familiarye with so I took a 20 minutes drive out to Oakland on a rainy Saturday to get my copies done. There’s street parking and the spaces are pretty wide. It’s not too hard to park or to stop the print shop. It’s technically on a corner, but really still on the block the first building edge you see after the mini driveway. It has a sign outside and a banner on the side wall, so easy to spot. It’s also the one with a white gate, that’s closed and a fabulous Unilocaltastic sticker!
I walked in and I was instantly greeted by Paul, who helped me through the entire process. I had to get some black and white copies done, printed on both sides and he able to do that for me instantly. I really appreciate that he doesn’t charge a different price for self service printing vs him helping make the copies that I needed.
His prices are just as amazing as my other favorite print shop, extremely reasonable. If it’s anywhere between 1 – 100 copies it will be 5 cent a page and if anymore, it would 3 cents a page. Amazing prices and you’re getting a better deal, better service, and giving business to your local entrepreneur. That is the Unilocal way,
This print shop does more than regular printing, including copies, cd covers, banners anything you can think of or need, Paul and his wife and definitely take care of you.
TIP: You can email him your documents and just let him know what you need, by the time you get there, it will be ready for you and no wait. I highly recommend coming here for anyone of your printing needs.

The prices have increased but that is probably due to the weak dollar.
This copy center makes me feel like I have an assistant. i can email my copies with instructions and they complete the order. if they need clarification they call.
I call when I email to make sure they have gotten it. They have done huge jobs on short notice and they have the equipment necessary to fulfill a variety of needs, that includes a variety of hole punch devices, covers and bindings.
I am glad they are in this side of oakland.

Very friendly & great prices!
This is way better than the big chain copier places and the folks working there are always so nice! They offer PO Boxes but I’m usually there to send faxes or make copies. I always do full-​service because the prices are good enough that there’s no gain in doing them myself (Plus, I hate operating copy machines). Also, there’s the Laurel Library right across the street so there’s a good place to go if you don’t want to wait for your 25-​page fax to go through.
Sadly 90% of the reason I use this place is faxes (what year is it?). For copies, they have an email you can use when you have a digital file:

I had to print out a packing slip and my printer just ran out of ink. Seeing this place was local, I quickly rushed there spent less than three minutes on the computer (to pull out the file) and had it printed. The cashier charged me a dollar. They should make their prices more clear (and a dollar for one piece of paper is ridiculous).

Wanted something local and this is it! My printer is printing everything on an angle so I emailed my files to OCP and they printed them out and made copies exactly as I asked. Ready same day and the people were so nice. I didn’t even use up the 8 minutes on the meter right out front. 3 cents/​copy for 100 and 15 cents for each emailed file. It really could not have been easier.

They are not only the cheapest but their turnaround time is fast. I go there for my small jobs, but now they will get all of my business!

Everything you could want in a local, family-​owned copy center. Have done countless large copy jobs at Oakland Copy, including legal binding. Chitra is bright and very accomodating for those last minute rush jobs.

I love this place so MUCH ! Cheapest place in Bay Area.
3 cents per copy (min. 100) — Unlike other places– they required you to make 100+ of the same copies. At this location, all you need to make is 100+ copies combined.
Under 100 copies– I believe it’s 5 cents– still a bargain. Then again, I’ll just make the copies at work for free. lol

Today I was preparing a presentation for some very important clients when my printer ran out of black ink YIKES! I pick up the phone and call Oakland Copy & Print. I emailed them my presentation and by the time I get there my presentation is pretty much ready to go. I love this place.

Best copy deal going!
The owner pointed me to one copier and the pages were sticking together in the feeder when I was using it. I couldn’t have that since I was copying over 100 pages. I asked which one was a better machine and she pointed out another one. Good for simple self-​service jobs.

This place is great. It’s a hidden gem in the Laurel district. Chitra, the owner, helped me as I tried to figure out why my Illustrator file that looked fine onscreen, kept printing with parts missing (my fault in file prep, not hers). I came back several times. She was patient, and helpful, and the place is fast and cheap. I’m so happy I learned about it!

No nonsense place to make your photocopies. 5 cents a copy — great price. Photocopiers work great — good ink quality, no smudges, etc. Easy street parking.

It’s 5 cents for regular printing and 3 cents after your print job exceeds 100 count

Ok I’m officially in love with this place. You can email in your print job, tell them how you want it and then just come in for pick up later! Amazing!!!
