Yep, the photo I had available wasn't much resolution (neither are geograph
photos by default), so might need a better pic when print-publishing.
The maps however, if you change config to "config: dpi=300", then it should
just download loads more tiles to give you the required resolution in your
output map.
So instead of building you a map out of 9 x zoom-14 tiles to fill a given area
of page, your "for print" settings might create the same image from 144 x
zoom-16 tiles.
(Actually, you need to manually specify the zoom level at the moment to get
that result, but that's a user-interface bug that will be fixed. Also, don't
try this with any settings that require zoom-18, it won't work ;)
