you can save your images by enabling image viewer in render options then after your render is finished you can choose what to save it as and where to

Set the renders on the Render tab, render button, output portion. That will allow you set how you want to output your files.

To change the number of passes, I'm not sure what you're looking for, but those usually come with more passes equal higher anti-aliasing. Those factors could be found on the camera's item properties page.

Let me know if that's not what you mean.

Hope that helps.

Open camera properties and try an AA (AntiAlising) setting like enhanced medium.

Save an image as LW_Jpeg and post it in this thread. That can help a lot in determining your problem.
