Is there any way to print the screen image of 5620 DMD terminal on a 3B2 Computer dot-matrix printer (or preferably, on a IBM PC dot-matrix printer) in stand-alone environment? Is there any "screendump" and "lpg" commands available in stand-alone environment now? Any suggestions or directions are very much appreciated! qing -- Qing Li USC Computer Science Uucp: {sdcrdcf,randvax}!uscvax!qing Csnet: qing@usc-cse Arpa: qing@usc-cse.csnet

Unless you have built a screen-dump subroutine into the stand-alone program that is running in your DMD, I am afraid you are stuck. Any attempt to load another stand-alone program into the DMD will clobber the display. It would be nice if there were a screen dump feature built into the 5620 firmware (accessible via SET-UP), but as of 8;7;5 there isn't.
