Does anyone know how dump an IBM graphics screen to a graphics
printer. I have tried loading graftabl and graphics.com and
doing shift prt. scr. The display adapter I am using is a
Hercules controller.

If I am correct the GRAPHICS external DOS command allow to print the contents of the screen which are not graphics; in other words it must be enable d in order to print graphics characters. You have done that already. The problem then is that your printer is not emulating the right printer mode. I believe that your printer is printing letters in places where there should be lines or edges. If you can get your printer to emulate the IBM Proprinter by means of its dip switches then you will get the desired output. And this you look for in the manual. By the way GRAFTABL is used to help PC's display extended characters in medium resolution graphics mode. Jose E. ??@@<Trikazoid>----------> Yes, working on signature.
