In addition to being able to pick up your BPs at the counter after you complete OLCI as
MikeMpls describes, you can get them from a kiosk. Just put your WP card in the reader, and when it pulls up your info there will be an option to print out "duplicate" BPs (they say 'duplicate', but there is never a problem using them). This can often be quicker than waiting in line (I've noticed a lot of airports no longer have elite checkin lines now that kiosks are being pushed; even if they have an elite line, if there are a couple people already in line (or "on line" if you're from New York), it's quicker to use the kiosk).
