Screen Capture to a printer.

Running 2000-Pro. Have been told there is a way to do a screen-capture to a printer by pressing certain keyboard keys simultaneously. I have tried <Ctrl><Print Screen>, <Alt><Print Screen>, <Shift><Print Screen>, etc.

Ta da; found a way to do it!
 
With the screen image you want on screen:
 
Start "Paint" under <Start><Accessories><Paint>,
 
Go back to the screen you want captured,
 
Press <Ctrl><Shift><PrintScrn>,
 
Go back to "Paint" and copy/paste the image into the Paint document,
 
Then "draw" a control box around that part of the image you want inserted into another Windows-based program,
 
"Copy" the image in the box,
 
Go to the other Windows program and paste the image.
 
 
 
Tried some other utilites (SnagIt, etc..), but didn't find any that any better than the above procedure.
