Is There An Option For Jpeg Quality When I Do A Save?

I have a 4400C scanner and I am scanning some old photos.  They aren't great quality but they are worse after scanning.  Someone who is 3000 miles away is giving me long distance suggestions and says there should be an option for selecting the jpeg quality when I save.  But I can't find any setting for that.  is there a jpeg quality setting somewhere? Why are the photos worse after scanning?  I want to put them on a flashdrive to give to someone else and also maybe get some printed.
