Color copies home business? -

Having 4 years experience in the print industry, I see an untapped market for fairer pricing on color copies (laser) for quantities lower than a cost effective price for press work.I would like to purchase a Xerox Phaser 8560 to setup in my home to sell medium to large runs of color copies (and business cards, flyers, etc). Instead of using a flat right, I will charge by ink coverage on the paper. Because it is home based, I will have zero overhead costs, so while the prints may cost me $0.10, I can sell them for 19-29 cents (competitor average is 49) and still make a nice profit.Has anyone attempted this, or have a con to this that I do not see?

Depending on where you live there are restrictions on what type of business you can run out of a residential neighborhood, particularly if customers come to your house. The neighbors almost always complain.
