I don't have the equipment to print that size at home.

On edit: the 30x40 size is approximate. The print has to be 30" wide by 26" tall to fit the frame. I am planning to hand trim it when I get the larger print since it's much cheaper to buy a standard oversized print than a custom size. I was a picture framer for many years, that part's a piece of cake for me.
