There's also http://opensteetmap.gryph.de/bigmap.cgi which again requires you to input tile coordinates (or paste any tile URL into the "Advanced" box to start). Then you get a map tile display and a menu that allows you to shrink/expand the selection. (There's also a hidden feature where you can add a "scale=nnn" parameter to the URL and it will re-scale all tiles to a width of nnn pixels, to give you better overview over large areas). When finished, you can either print from your browser or download a perl script that will then download all tiles and make one giant PNG from them. I regularly use that to create 8000x5000 PNGs for poster printing, and the CGI source is of course available for everyone who wants to improve it.
