You can scan it in parts (making sure they're all angled squarely), then use a photostitching program to put it all together. Sorry, I can't recommend any program, you'll just have to google it yourself.
Everywhere like such as, and MOES.

Maybe this should go under tutorials.

But anyway, to answer your question, my scanner is sized to fit the A4 paper size (+/- 1 inch).

It looks like that you may have to do a bit of a cut and paste job with bigger sized paper.

The main colourist at the place I used to draw comics has an A3 scanner at home.

So they do exist... I never got around to asking where she got it from.

But I'm sure you can find something online...

If you do get one .. be prepared ... the scanner will literally "rock" your world (well .. your table at least).
