Is there a way to capture data to a MS-DOS file instead of LPT, if [PrintScreen] key is clicked?

There were a number of free and shareware program utilitys that people wrote that would capture printer output, including PrintScreen, and save it to a file. Most of these were for text mode only.

Try searching the DOS program utility web sites for print screen capture.
