Look into the services of Jonathan Penney in New York. He's a Master Print
Maker.

If I recall, Mr.Penny uses a an Iris (30x40 sheetsize). I've seen
some of his repros and he does exceptional work.
http://www.harvestpro.com/price/home.htm has 46" limits, but if there
is something out there bigger, they would probably know.
Our Roland rep mentioned the other day the Big R is coming out with a
60inch (or did he say 64?) model of the Fj500 HiFiPro. Not quite five
feet sans stretching and/or border room, but getting there.
Short of all that, Colorspan has the widest current models (60 and I
think a 64), mostly textile industry based work, but I don't know of
anyone using them for giclie FAPs.
