On the Mac I am aware of how to do a screen capture, but it creates a 72 DPI image. We need a much higher quality image because it's for printing on a color laser printer. We need to be able to print this out high-quality so it looks good on a 11 x 17 inch paper. Thanks!

3It creates a 1:1 capture of your screen resolution.– RuskesCommented Jun 7, 2013 at 3:10

Any way to improve the quality so it looks sharper when printed? Or is there another method than doing a screen capture? Kind of like Print to PDF, but Print to higher quality TIFF?– EdwardCommented Jun 7, 2013 at 5:49

Taken from here.
defaults write com.apple.screencapture type pdf
killall SystemUIServer
Several other choices besides pdf and default png, see link.

Can this also capture the entire screen, like from a web page even if it requires scrolling to see the entire web page?– EdwardCommented Jun 7, 2013 at 7:18

If you run sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist DisplayResolutionEnabled -bool true and restart, the Displays preference pane will include settings for HiDPI modes:
You can save a screenshot of an entire website with webkit2png:
brew install webkit2png
webkit2png -F http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/93321
-F only saves a full-size screenshot. webkit2png uses a HiDPI mode when a HiDPI resolution is selected from System Preferences.
