If you want to use maximas, you just need to make sure LilyPond can
access the correct font glyph by changing the default note head style
before using the note; depending on which style you want, you could
try the following:

\override NoteHead #'style = #baroque

- uses default style for notes shorter than breve and neomensural for
breve/longa/maxima, so can be set globally

\once override NoteHead #'style = #mensural

- alternative to neomensural, set as required
