    I used to use the Print Scrn while connected to a large company mainframe. Is it possible to enable this feature on a personal computer?

    Print Scrn is active. It copies to clipboard, not to a printer. Is it possible to use it for a DOS based function?

    I don't think so.

    I could be wrong, however.

    In Windows (Win95 and above) if you press Print Screen on the Keyboard and it will copy a graphical picture (DIB format) of the screen into the clipboard.

    You can then paste it into any graphic program (MSPaint) and print it out.

    :cool:
