I would think that reproductions (at cost) would be fully legal as long as they didn't charge more than cost for the reproduction itself (i.e. they charge for the CD + cost of printing the manual, so their profit technically comes from the CD price, not the manual reprint) and the cost of shipping.
Err, not quite. Whether or not you make money from it is irrelevent. Generally, copyright states that you are not allowed to copy a particular text full stop.
