The operators don't have to. The printer will downsize the file for printing. Send slightly soft, slightly low saturation files. I had a guy shooting weddings with an 8mp Canon, and submitting full res files. Used to annoy the hell out of me doing his 300+ proof jobs. The translation times were enormous.
