I am needing to print what is currently appearing on my
monitor screen right now. How do I do that in Windows XP
Professional.

Many thanks,

Hello,
Well, for one, the "print screen" key doesn't print
whats on the screen (ask Bill Gates & co. about this one).
What it does is copy the screen to the clipboard & you can
then "paste" it into a photo editing program (or microsoft
paint: start>programs>accessories>paint). You can then
print the entire screen from there. By the way, this will
also work in most games, you can capture a screenshot with
the printscreen key.
