I bought a copy a week or two ago, quite a good head-start if you've no experience of printing. £4 including postage isn't too bad a price either.

This is an absolute goldmine of vital information.
Mastering Digital Printing Digital Process and Print: Amazon.co.uk: Harald Johnson: Books
And this
Real World Color Management: Industrial-Strength Production Techniques: Amazon.co.uk: Bruce Fraser, Chris Murphy, Fred Bunting: Books
contains everything you need to know to get perfect results without even looking at the machines.

My two bibles.

All books are about printing techniques and types of paper. Wouldn't want to have to collect the set though.
