I’m looking for an answer to this myself. So far I’ve found that Lulu will only accept orders made on their site, which means you have to individually order each time.

Lightning source does dropshipping but requires a title setup fee which is around $75 for each new title you order.

Please let me know if you find a solution.

Most printing companies that can print from electronic submission will print, bind and ship the way you want if you pay the price they want. Make up a RFB (Request for Bid) and send it around. Compare the bids (including any deviation from what you want), and choose one. (You can include the possibility of a direct "your site to their site" link, but don’t count on that unless you want to hire a really good programmer to write your end.)
