Print your own???

So you think I can print a single copy from a CD cheaper than the
maker of the widget can print 100's?

That's not quite the point.

The most common reason stated for not providing a comprehensive
manual is that too many of the customers are not utilizing the
manuals. Therefore, according to the argument, the customers are
unwilling to bear the cost--instead they will purchase a competing
product which does not include that cost; or may simply do without
the product.
Therefore, the printable manual is an acceptable compromise for those
customers who demand a printed manual. (Personally, I don't like the
result as well as a bound manual; but it is a usefull compromise most
of the time.)

My entire argument was that I thought we were talking about a manual that
was REQUIRED to be in the aircraft. IF that isn't the case the, well, never
mind.
