One very frustrating way to hang the system is to accidently request
a screen dump or logging of output to the printer when there is no
printer connected to the system. Control or Alt print-screen will do
this. One way to prevent stop the ystem form hanging is to map the print
screen interrupt, interrupt 5, to a do nothing routine or a routine
which will test for presence of the printer before continuing.
