Fabrizio, I'm one of the people who runs Workantile in Ann Arbor. It's always great to see another coworking community opening in Michigan. Good luck!
As for printing, we have a Brother DCP-8085DN connected to the network that people use. We supply the paper, but ask that people who print a lot bring in a package of paper to replace what they use. The most used feature of the printer, however, is the scan-to-pdf feature it has.
