We are interested in being able to do screen dumps to a PostScript color printer from our DM3500's running SR10.2. Does anyone have any experience doing this and if so how is it accomplished. Is any third party software in- volved? I'd appreciate any information, concerning this sub- ject, that anyone has to offer.

I looked into dumping our screen to a postscript printer but
found that the color postscript equivalent of a screen is huge!
Each pixel requires a red/green/blue component and this
translates to 6 bytes per pixel.
We bought ourselves a Montage film recorder which accepts TARGA
formatted image files. I have a program which can take snapshots
of the screen and generate these TARGA formatted files. I can
send you this program if you like.
