I've run into this before on archive.org, incredibly annoying.
I believe there are utilities that can capture and join together JPEGs into a PDF, but it seems they purposefully uploaded a very low res version to prevent that.
Hate to say, but I don't see a way around it.
In this case the jpegs themselves change everytime you zoom in, so you zoom in a little it loads a new set of higher quality Jpegs.
Do you remember the tool you are talking about?
ChromeCacheView is a step in the right direction, but nothing fully automatic. I'm also searching for a less manual solution.
You could stitch together the pdfs with screen captures then, but that would be a royal pain in the ass.
check this out, autohotkey script that screenshots and flips pages:

Seems after that you can select all the pages in windows explorer, hit print, and choose PDF.
