    How to print copy of program ?

    Cent 5 , ML15 and Partner 2
    When viewing my finished program on my PC using the offline simulator , I'd like to print a copy of individual events as they appear on the screen .
    I pressed the print key on the simulated event page , and this makes my printer start up , but it doesn't print the screen .
    I tried the "print screen" on my keyboard , then opened PAINT and tried to paste , but there is nothing there to paste .
    If I search the A: drive , it will read a floppy copy of the program and I can open that in Wordpad and print that way , but this is a copy of the Gcode version of the program .
    How can I get it to print exactly as it appears on the control screen ?
    Thanks
    Bob

    You can download a free print screen utility called Gadwin Print Screen, I use it for similiar reasons.

    This technique will work on newer versions of the FastCam off-line software:

    If you change the last line in the PATH.DAT file from PRN to C:\file.txt, when you press the PRINT button, you will create a file named FILE.TXT in the root of the C:\ drive. This is a plain text file that you can edit with any text editor.

    This is wrong,as PAINT does not have "copy from clipboard" it cannot be done in paint.
