Paul,

Go into 'IMAGE' and in the dpi box, enter something like 300 (dpi). 
Select a relevant physical size, say 8 inches by 11 or whatever, and 
Photoshop will resize the image for you to a decent physical size, and 
decent file size ready for printing. While you're at it, find 
IMAGE/LEVELS and hit the AUTO button and then enter. That'll smarten it 
up a bit for you. *Now* try printing.

Next step: buy a decent Photoshop book and get reading!
