They should be able to take the file (I'm assuming a PDF) and print them straight out without having to enlarge them. That's what I had done through a friend of mine who works at an engineering firm and they have a huge plotter. If you're printing out the detailed plans that Joshua Maruska created, the sheet of paper should be 88"x67". That's the document size of the file. Unless they can't print something that large...that might be why they're asking.
Now...with that said, the measurement of the width of the Falcon drawing (the side view with the cockpit) from the top gun turret window trim (for lack of a better term) to the bottom gun turret window trim is just under 5.5 inches. I've taken the drawing into Adobe Illustrator and came up with 5.0463 inches.
Hopefully that helps. If not, PM me and we'll see if we can figure this out.
Good luck!
