Most of the printing we do is more than a square meter (about 10 square feet) in size and we have a number of satisfied customers. The biggest print we have done is 3 meters long (about 10 feet) with good results.

It is not the web image we are printing but the original image which exists at a totally different size, format and density to the web image.
