Maintaining sharp image quality when printing larger

I'm printing some color jpeg images on an HP officejet j4550 from a macbook. I can get a nice clear image when I print with the default settings but that gives me almost a full inch of margins. When I change it to print without borders the images stretch to the dimensions I want but they get very dark and blurry, even though it's only a little bit bigger. Does anyone have any tips to print more sharply? I'm just printing from the mac's image viewer program.

I'm printing fake DVD covers to use as props. That's why I need the image to stretch the whole 11 inches. But the 8.5 inch dimension has margins because DVD cases aren't that tall.
