POH: C172N vs C172P

I fly a C172P and have been searching for ages somewhere to get hold of a .pdf POH so that I could print off the take-off/landing performance charts and W&B charts to use in pre-flight planning. No such luck! There's no photo copier at the airfield I fly from, and I'm not allowed to tke the POH home

I have found plenty of C172N POH's avaialable for download on the internet, and have printed one of these instead. I notice there are slight differences in the max/useful loads (less than 100 lbs) and the fuel capacity along with various speeds in both models appear to be exactly the same.

If I'm using a C172N POH is there anything I need to watch out for as being majorly different from the C172P that I'm actually flying? Of course I understand that I can't take the C172N figures as being 100% correct, but would most people agree that the figures will be close enough to not have much cause for concern?

Many thanks in advance
