An option that hasn't been mentioned is: make a really fine contact
print, actual size, then scan the contact print in a drum scanner.
This would most likely require an expensive trip to a service bureau,
but that seems a clean path to larger prints.

NewLab in San Francisco has these in their equipment list, for
example:

  Drum scanners:
    Heidelberg S3900, max size 20 x 25, up to 18400 dpi
    Heidelberg Primescan, max size 20 x 25, up to 11000 dpi
