Is there a way to use the Print Screen Command in NT

Unfortunately, you cannot use Print Screen to print directly to a printer. However, using the Print Screen key puts the screen-shot into the clipboard. Print Screen by itself copies whatever is open on the entire desktop. ALT + Print Screen copies only the most open window. You then can then paste the image into Paint, Word, Powerchute, etc., and print it from there.

Not directly, but there is a freeware program called PrintKey2000 that will capture a screen print and send it either to the printer or to a document or graphics file.

We use it extensively for producing installation documentation and we've neverhad a problem with it.

I found it at sharewarejunkies.com but I'm sure many of the other freeware/shareware sites will have links as well.
