Printing a screen shot from 2 monitors

[Robbywon]

I have XP and use 2 monitors for viewing my work. When I take a screen shot
and save it into Paint, I can view the data as I originally viewed it from
both screens at original size in Paint When I try to print the data from
Paint, Paint seems to compress the data from the top and bottom as well as
the sides of the page in order to fit all of the data onto a single sheet of
paper. I have changed the settings on the Page Setup screen under the
Orientation, Margins, Centering, and Scaling areas to various different
settings but can not seem to get the screenshot I have take from both screens
to fill up the entire printed page. The result is a printed page with data so
small I need to be a mosquito to read it well. Is there a way alter the
settings so I get the desired result? I can send the file I have saved but I
don't know how to do that in this post. Any help in this area would be
appreciated. Thanks.

Try using free Irfanview to make and print your screen captures.
Irfanview also is a very handy viewer for many different file types.
