Tony--

Also (if your instituion allows it) you can stretch the budget and get good,
high-quality photocopies and re-usable internegs made by approaching your local
photohouse, especially if you already give them business.  You could offer:

-to pay what you can afford, and ask if they'll do it
-to pay their costs, and ask if they'll do it for that
-to pay a small % of the cost or nothing, but give them some passes instead
-to pay nothing, but give them credit as an exhibition sponsor
