Depends on how many digits your calculator can display. For instance, the Windows calculator is quite happy to display 29! = 8841761993739701 954543616000000 [space added to prevent Answers from omitting the last few digits] in fixed notation, but uses scientific notation for 30! and higher. But unless your calculator will display 31 digits, you won't be able to do this.
A calculator with a 10-digit display can show up to 13! in fixed point form, and a calculator with an 8-digit display can show up to 11! in fixed-point form.

It depends on how many digits yoru calculator holds. Try it and see. In fact, you could start by multiplying the numbers on your calculator: start with 720*7 (that's 7!) and go until your calculator geeks. It won't be long.
