Printing

How can a given post be printed without jumping through the hoops of importing it into paint or doing an entire screen print?

Are you running a PC or Mac?(Dumb me ? Paint is PC)
You should be able to pull down a Print/Printer command from your bar above the Forum screen.
However if it is like mine it prints the complete thread.
I Highlite the portions that I want to print separately copy(control c)and paste them to my Word processor page (control v), and print from there.
I have to copy and paste pictures to my scanner page or save them by right clicking them with the mouse and saving them to any file that I have selected.
Hope that this gives some help.

Viggo has got it right Steve... just highlight what you want to print... then copy and paste it into a word processing document...

Also depends on what version of IE Explorer or Netscape you are using.

If using IE, and a newer version, and if you Right Click, you can print in frames or without.

This might depend on printer, on my print screen I right click, then the print screen comes up and then under the options tab, I can change it to --
1. to print as laid out on the screen
2. only selected screen
3. or all frames individually.
