As RC said – scan at high resolution. 300dpi should do it. If you can,
scan as a TIF file instead of JPG.

You can also resize in a Graphics program. Paint is not very capable.
A better graphics program will have several re sizing algorithms – one
of them will be better than the others. Also, re sizing to an even
multiple will work better (e.g. 200% is better than 190%).
