3COM somehow managed to break the print-screen function with their 3+
software. At Portland Schools, we have resorted to writing our own 
screen dumper that uses the graphics mode to dump either text or
graphics screens. I would be glad to send you a disk with the software
on it if you wish. I should mention that the program works only with
Epson or Epson compatible printers. I hope this is not a problem for
you. Please let me know if I can help.

Rumor has it that Version 2.0 has fixed this problem. But we haven't
been able to find an easy upgrade path yet. Thanks 3COM.
