How does one export a hi-res bitmap directly from Inkscape? How does one change the resolution?
File->Export Bitmap, then set the width/height & dpi to sufficiently high values.
What would be good figures for those, assuming it was going on a landscape 8.5x11 paper, but needed to also be viewed on the screen.
What I do is select figures that look good to me - it takes a few tries sometimes (and I don't do it often). In print, 300 or 600 DPI generally looks good, but depending on the resolution required for viewing on the screen (ISTR that 75 dpi is considered "good enough" for most desktop viewing that's not zoomed in, but might be remembering incorrectly.)
What I do is figure 300 or 600 dpi for printing, and then figure out the size of the image I need and multiply the dimensions by the DPI to get the resolution I want. Maybe doing a bit too much work there, but the results have generally been good.
