Tricks

Print Screen
 

If you're used to using Print Screen (or whatever your keyboard calls it) to print what you see, and you try to do this with Windows 95, don't expect much. In fact, don't expect anything. It just won't work.

Now for the good news. There's still a way to print what you see -- it's just not as direct. When you hit Print Screen, Windows 95 copies the screen to your clipboard. From there, you can paste the screen into Paint and print from there.

After you hit the Print Screen key, open Paint (Start|Programs|Accessories|Paint), and choose Edit|Paste. See your screen? File|Print it!

Mini-tip: If you only want to print an open window, and not the whole screen, hit Alt+Print Screen.
