Any pro lab can print any size image you want. The 'problem' is that
paper is sold in standard sized sheets and rolls. It really isn't a
problem because a competent pro/digital lab will gladly print your image
on a sheet of 18" x 24" paper (digital C-print). Like enlarging a 35mm
negative you will end up with uneven borders, i.e. thicker on the long
dimension and thinner on the shorter.
Depending on what you want to do with the final print, either leave it
standard sized to fit in a pre-made frame, or have the lab trim it to
make the borders even and use a custom frame. I have been getting 6cm x
6cm negatives printed on 11" x 14" paper for decades now & I love the
end result.
Baboo Color Labs, 37 West 20th St. NYC 212 807-1574 does a fantastic job
with digital C-prints up to mural size. It would be worth a call since
they have no problem filling mail-order jobs and they are absolute
sticklers for technical excellence.
Disclaimer: None. I generally frequent Duggal but that is because I
don't shoot digital.
Hope this helps,
