    Loyd's given the ppi of the large versions of the maps as 120. So, if you open the image in your image editor, make sure the ppi is set to 120, and print from there, they should print at the proper scale.

    In Photoshop, Image > Image Size. Make sure "Resample Image" is unchecked, and under Document Size, change "Resolution" to 120 pixels/inch.

    Please take note, however, that the images are quite large. Area 2-12 is 33" x 24". So you're going to have to slice it up in order to print it at home. I've never done that, so I'm not sure what the best way to approach it would be.
