Clarifying my previous post,
Firstly, what I think mono was saying is IF you are thinking of shipping something make sure it looks nice, otherwise you will not help yourself much with it.While I don't think it will land you a job, especially if there are not openings, you might at least be in somebody's mind when the next opening comes up, where you could potentially send a PDF to remind them how nicely you approached them originally.
Maybe it is a good idea to contact some friend working in a professional printing company and pull a favour, or save a few quid and print a short run that you can send to various studios/agencies that you like.
Most AD/CD (besides great work) will appreciate a nice choice of paper and good layout. Personally I keep well presented stuff even if it is rather useless.
Lastly, if most of your work is web/motion related, ignore all the above.
