I know empiricism rules, however.
I'm sure that of the various 13in (a3+) inkjets the _actual_structure_ of the printhead isn't the same as their bigger 17in (a2) brothers, but the 2880/1440 resolution holds and some apparently use the same ink.
Given that, is it reasonable to believe a file upres/resize to A2 and then split in two, with each printed A3 and split ends joined as best, would let you see how that image would look printed A2? And continuing...
