PS/PDF does not care about the resolution info in the JPEG. The only 
difference the internal resolution setting makes is to the zoom value 
you can see in OP. 100% zoom in the OP frame corresponds to the JPEG's 
internally set resolution. So, changing the resolution of all JPEGs to 
a fixed value, e.g., 300dpi does help a bit when using them in OP, but 
it is irrelevant as far as the actual printing process goes.
