What you are running into is something that was done intentionally by
Microsoft.  It is working correctly.  When you do a PrintScreen, it is
saved to the Windows Clipboard where you can then save it and then print
it.  I'd like to be able to print directly from the Clipboard, or better
yet, be able to PrintScreen.

I have found one anomaly around this, but it doesn't always hold true.
I have several systems that are configured to have an 84-key keyboard when
in fact they actually have a 101-key keyboard.  They can PrintScreen from
most of their DOS applications.  Unfortunately, it didn't work with the
reverse configuration.

According to my last issue of "Inside Microsoft Windows" you can also get
around this problem by checking the PrintScreen box in the PIF editor for
the pif file that calls the application.  This has never worked for me.
Looks like I need to call Microsoft again.  Sigh...

I hope this helps.
