Hi, I have a Canon 40D, and shoot in RAW. I was wondering if I can print up to a 30x40" poster size and still have it look good.

The original images are 16.2"x10.8" 240ppi (3888 x 2592 pixels)

I was looking for something around 20x30 to 30x40 range.

Thanks for any input, this is my first print above 8x10, so I don't want to mess it up.

Absolutely, as long as you are not cropping the heck out of your file. You have a decent bit of resolution there for both sizes. Keep in mind, you are going to have to convert your RAW file into an 8bit RGB file, we can not print from 16bit files.
