I would probably print the map separately anyway (e.g. because it's
colorized while everything else is b/w). I would print the normal pages
on A4 with two pages per side, double-sided and probably even using
something fancy like brochure layout ideally on a fast laser printer.
And I would print the map on good inkjet paper with an inkjet printer.
