Printing offices (?)...

I checked here around Montreal and the best places offered two kind of
printings, one was with inkjet printers that could print in formats of 4x3 feet,
but you can mess with the poster with your fingers or moisture... 
The other was a Lambda printer that makes a real picture out of the TIFF image,
instead of shooting ink, it shoots light, with a precise one pixel by millions
pixels LCD screen or something like it...

Anyway, both of these costs a lot...

You don't want a single poster, a single will cost like 60$, ten would cost
around say... 18$ and hundreds would cost less than 10$, etc...

Ask around where you can photocopy (xerox), print and put a plastic cover on
posters...

Simon

I know the local photoshop (no not adobe ;) prints ditigal images for
customers. Not too sure about the size though, I've only seen A4-prints, and
the quality was really good. It doesn't cost much either, I think :)
If you are going to do a really large poster, try asking someone in an
architect-company. I worked at one once, and they had a quite impressive
printer (printed >1meter wide images, with extremely high dpi). I don't know
if they do prints for outsiders, so it might be better if you knew a
"insider" :)
Good luck!

Kinko's does it for about 30.00
(or at least around here they do)
quality it good, colors are decent for 30.00
you are going to have to render it VERY large for good quality

I wanted to print a CD cover so I called Kinko's and they said they could do
it. After I got there, they had no clue how to do it. I would suggest a
local print shop, because Kinko's does not specialize in that kind of thing,
even though they seem to think they do.

Sorry, that was what I was talking about,  most of the local photoshop don't
print bigger than 16x14 inches, but I found one out of 10 that did print my
personnal 4x3 feet...
