How familiar are you with print? What could you offer vs a print shop? Do you mean printing regular letter sized prints or things that are more customized? Who's your target audience?
I use print shops pretty often, they are very expensive because a print can take a long time. The machines break down a lot and need a lot of maintenance. When you're busy printing one job that machine can't be used until it's done. For example, I recently had an 80-page-long booklet printed four times, it took a long ass time. All that time you can't service another customer unless you have multiple machines. Often when people come to a shop they have printing jobs that they can't do at home and many need things at very short notice. I don't think it's an easy market.
