A local electrician shop here has a large format printer/plotter. You
might check with the electricians that design whole building electric
service.

I would recommend googling "blueprint scanning service", there's a lot
of places you can ship the maps off to for scanning, rolled up in a
shipping tube. If you want a 600 DPI lossless (PNG) raster scan of
something 35 x 28 inches in size it's going to be a huge file size.
If these are US topo maps, you might be able to re-download the whole
thing in a vector based format from the USGS. Huge numbers of topo
maps are now free. Go to http://store.usgs.gov and choose Map locator
and downloader. I was able to mirror the "7.5 x 7.5 grid" 2014 series
USGS topo maps for all of WA state using this method.

So fairly off topic but since I live in the middle of nowhere (
great place for a wisp) I don’t have access to normal businesses
like a copy shop. A friend loaned me some old topo maps of an area
I spent a lot of time in each fall. The maps have hand written
notes on them along with GPS cords in some cases. He said to make
a copy and return the maps to him. The problem is nowhere close to
me can make copies this large. They are color and the largest map
is 35”x 28”. I am wondering if anyone knows of a company that they
have used in the past that I could send these too and have them
make two copies of each and then send them all back.
They are too large to scan and a digital photo uploaded to a
printer won’t cut it on quality.
