I remember I printed 2 images I created, one in A3 (39,61 cm x 28,00 cm) and
the other in A2 (48,79 cm x 34,5 cm).
To do so, I rendered them at 4680 x 3308 (A3) and 5763 x 4075 (A2) to obtain
a 300 dpi for the print.
After that, you can always use a 2D program (PS, PSP, Gimp) to make the
image bigger to change form A3 to A2 (if you are bordering the 200 dpi
limit, you'll get also a nice print).
For printing I used a Ink printer (an Epson one) and special paper.
Both images are hanging on my hall's walls right now.
If you are curious enough, they are:

If you look at an other thread going on with Thomas Lake,
I've posted a link to the full-size version:

http://www.digitaltwilight.de/no_lights/jpg/gerb.jpg

Its 1.2 MB with minimum jpeg-compression and a
resolution of 3200x2400. There you'll be able
to see the signature, and it does work on the
print (on first glance not noticeable, but when looking
closer...)

Beautiful pic. That red makes me go all peculiar. Last time that
happened was with a bunch of red tulips posted a while back.

What do you mean with peculiar? Is it good or bad?

Grabs your eyeballs.

pity, I was thinking of downloading it and having it printed
on a photoprinter. You know a 300 dpi 24 bits color each pixel
on photographic paper.

A printer that can do 24 bit colour would be excessively
cumbersome; most printers use 2 bit colour (cyan, magenta,
yellow, black).  Some high-end printers have some extra
colours such as green, but even those don't even come close
to 24 bit...it's all simulated.  Besides, you can find 2400
dpi printers these days for not too much effort.

It is not cumbersome, it is just a printer, except that it
will print om photographic paper. put another way it is just
a normal photo (a4 or letter format) no dithering or else 
involved. I do have a 2400 dpi color printer myself and it 
will produce photo-like pictures as long as you do not look 
at it from less the 50cm.
