If you want truly printable versions of NOAA raster charts check this site out: http://xpda.com/nauticalcharts/
It seems this fellow has converted the full catalog to high resolution PNG files, which any graphics program will recognize. I spliced 5 individual charts together in Photoshop and printed them out on 42" wide HP DesignJet 5500 printer for a single 8' long chart of the Maine Coast, from Cape Elizabeth to Passamaquoddy Bay. It has proven perfect for land-based daydreaming and planning, and makes the wall it is pinned to so very much more attractive.
