Best way to Save images for Kodak Easy Share

Question

I work on my images in PSD format. When I want to save the file as a JPEG image to download to Kodak EasyShare for printing, what settings should I be using so my files are not to large. I working with 8 MEG and 5 MEG pictures. The large images are converted from RAW pictures.
Thanks for your advice

We typically use a native extension to do this, but it is certainly possible in ActionScript.
When the file has been downloaded, we save it to the applicationStorageDirectory.
Next time, we check to see if exists locally, if so - use that and don't download.
   var file:String = renameFile(_externalHttpImage);
   //see if we already have a copy of the image
   var loader:Loader = new Loader();
   var ba:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
   if( fileExists(file)){
    file = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath(file).nativePath;
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, local_loader_complete);
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, errorOnChargeFile);
    var f:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath(file);
    if( f.exists){
     var fs:FileStream;
     try {
      //now load the size of the file
      fs = new FileStream();
      fs.open(f, FileMode.READ);
      fs.readBytes(ba);
      //  trace("READ " + fs.readUTF());
      fs.close();
     catch(e:Error){
      trace( "Error Loading Image File  '" +file + ": " +  e.message+ "\n"+ e.getStackTrace());
    loader.loadBytes(ba);
