how do i print a list of files from windows windows
explorer or my computer?
 
I prefer the last link, which goes to a Microsoft Knowledge Base article
that tells you how to add
Print Directory to the right click menu in Windows Explorer and My Computer.
Although the article mentions other versions of Windows, it works fine with
Windows XP.

Print the names, and other information, of all folders and files on your
computer. http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptdirprn.html

Greetings --

From the command prompt (Start > Run > Cmd.exe), simply change to
the desired directory and type "dir > filelist.txt" or "dir > lpt1,"
just as you used to do in DOS. Any of the switches for the DIR
command (type "dir /?") will work with this command, if you wish to
modify the output. You can then subsequently edit the resulting text
file using NotePad, WordPad, Word, etc.
