Some places have those large-format printers just sitting there, they might be glad of the chance to make some money off it for a change.
But that's a lot of ink.
I've also thought about taking the hi-res image to a photo-printing place but the one that I knew of that did larger formats than 8x10s just closed its photo center.
If all they're going to do is print it on a large-format printer, I could do that. If I took it to a photo center, I would expect a photo-paper print, like where you expose the light-sensitive paper to a negative image and it's developed in chemicals...
But come to think of it, I don't even think that's how it's done anymore. I'll bet those "20 4x6 prints for $5!" things just use ink on glossy paper...
Meh, if I cared enough I would have done it already... And my walls are already so full of artwork and prints and stuff I'm having a hard time finding a place to hang a family photo so I've got bigger problems then how to rip off an awesome photo of Saturn.
