Hello Dee, I use Legacy Deluxe & Charting. Both Programs allow me to save my charts as a PDF file. I can then take a copy of the PDF file to my local Staple's store which has a large format printer (in this case about 36"). These printers have a continuous roll instead of a paper tray. They charge by the linear foot but have a flat rate of $5 for a 3x4 (non-color) as that is what is commonly used for copying house plans here. Be aware that higher quality paper or color prints of this size would be much more expensive.
