If the JPEGs are of good quality, I think you should probably avoid messing with them. If they need clearing up, you might want to let calibre do it, or you might want to do it by hand.
They're not the world's greatest quality scans. I've attached one so you can see what they're like (they're reproductions of carvings on Egyptian monuments). I'll try the various processing options in Calibre and see what the results are; my aim is to make the hieroglyphic inscriptions are clear as possible, so I can work on translating them. There are really too many to do by hand.

Make sure your output profile (Common Options ==> Page Setup) is set to "tablet" or the JPEGs may be resized to fit the resolution of your currently-selected default output device.
Oh yes, I always have the "Tablet" output option selected!
