I cannot imagine it being cheaper to print the entire QSL - the ink my 
printers use is too costly now - cannot imagine how much I would go 
through in printing a thousand cards!  For a round number - say I spend 
60 dollars for QSLs... a black ink cartridge alone is 15 bucks... I 
sorely doubt 4 of them could print 100 QSLs - which are in multi-color, 
too...

Do not think it is an option...

To tell you the truth I cannot wait for the bugs to get ironed out of 
LOTW... I REALLY hate all the expenses associated with QSLing.
