I've found in the past that scanning at a resolution which produces an image
on the screen close to the required size means you can get a sharper jpeg
for web use than scanning at maximum res and resampling.  I suggested as
much in this list, but got shouted down.  My recent experience has been
that resampling always means I have to sharpen afterwards.  As Art suggests
- try both and see what works for you.
