Is your computer ever picture perfect?
Maybe this has happen to you, you're doing something on your computer and suddenly what you see on your screen is incredible. So incredible, in fact, that you wish you could take a snapshot of what you see. Of course, you could just stop using the computer and hope the power never goes off?but that's not very practical, is it?
What's needed instead is some secret formula to get your printer to print everything it sees on the screen. If you're using Windows 95 or 98 here's what you do:- First, press the key called PrintScreen (sometimes it just uses the letters PrtSc).
- Secondly, start the Paintbrush program or your word-processing program if it's not already running.
- Next, use the Paste command from the Edit menu to see your masterpiece.
- Finally, choose Print and you now have a permanent copy.
