Find print and xerox shops near Vijaya College, bengaluru

About this place

Vijaya College sits inside the older, education-saturated pocket of Basavanagudi in Bengaluru, where leafy avenues and heritage homes share space with lecture halls. Established decades ago, the institution is best known for its undergraduate programmes in commerce, arts, and science, and draw students from across the southern districts. The campus itself is compact, hemmed in by Bull Temple Road and neighbourhood temples, and many students spend the better part of their day between classrooms, the library, and the small tea stalls that line the footpath outside. Pin codes around the campus fall in the 560004 and 560050 range, and the locality supports 34 listed xerox and print shops that cater to the steady academic traffic.

Getting here and around

The closest metro station is National College on the Green Line, roughly a ten-minute walk downhill, and most students prefer the bus — the 201, 210, and K2 series route along Bull Temple Road and Kempegowda Bus Stand, stopping within a hundred metres of the main gate. Cycle is common, and parking is limited; the narrow one-ways around the college discourage two-wheelers from lingering. Most students walk between the reading rooms, canteens, and the print shops clustered along the parallel lanes.

Why printing demand is high here

The rhythm of the academic calendar at Vijaya College drives a compressed, intense print cycle. Mid-semester assignments, internal tests, and semester-end project reports tend to cluster in the same fortnight, and the 34 shops around the campus feel the squeeze. Several students handle back-to-back submissions across multiple subjects, with accompanying plagiarism reports and soft-bound copies demanded by departments. PG students nearby also walk over for dissertation printing and binding. The listed cluster, including S.R. XEROX CENTRE on Bull Temple Road, gets especially busy the day before any submission deadline.

What people typically print here

Assignment printouts in batches of 25 to 50 pages, exam form printouts, hall ticket photocopies, spiral binding for project reports, and colour pages for charts and seminar slides. Students also get ID-size photographs, bonafide certificate copies, and at times dissertation covers printed on card stock. A few come in for poster prints the night before departmental events.
