generating images for IE to print

I need to generate an image to print on a small card (15cm x 5cm), the
image will be cut from the standart a4 sheet; it was done by MS Access
proggie before and I'm rewriting it into ASP.NET.
I generate the image using GDI and write it to utput stream using Jpeg
encoder and appropriate mime type in the header.
Problem is, image is printed poorly qualitywise, I can't figure out how
to affect size/quality ratio.
I use all possible high-quality params on Bitmap and Graphics object
and Quality = 100 paramter for the encoder.
I am able to affect size AND quality by altering image's pixel size,
so I either get a huge high-quality image, or a small low-quality
image. How do I get a small high-quality image? Do I set some
parameters in GDI or change some IE settings, or both?

Is there any other way to print the image?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
