I really cannot tell the difference between the original image and the printed PDF when using zip, or JPEG-max. It would be a fake lossless compression if uoi could tell the difference.
It's up to you.

Awesome, I had no idea that was possible! I expected all the settings to be in the printer properties. Thanks!

The information given here is incorrect. Changing the quality setting under the JPEG menu only affects the JPEGs generated when the "Standard save format" selected (in the "Save" menu) is JPEG.
To increase the quality of the JPEG's in the generated PDFs one has to click PDF under Formats and in the compression tab choose a quality setting (Auto, zip JPEG-max, etc) for each kind of image (color, greyscale or monochrome).
Cheers.
