Micro publishers exist online, blurb, lulu, sharedink, etc. Their 
quality is terrible. Unfortunately, low prices and high quality do not 
exist together. 

I have no idea what your project would cost... but i do know that the 
cost between 500 and 1000 is marginal. The printer's charge comes from 
the setup, not the number of copies. But then again, I'm using quadtone 
printing and high end paper. You might save some money by going 
duotone, though i have no idea how much.
