Hi! This is my first post.

I have a 2k pro workstation that is still using a BASIC program as a database. The printer (inkjet) works with 2k, but works only sometimes with DOS windows.

I've configured the DOS window

1) To run in full screen mode
2) I've disabled PrtSc and Alt-PrtSc in the shortcut's MISC tab.
3) Reg tweaked LPR timeout to 1 sec

Program only sometimes works with Shift-Prt Scr, with no pattern observed.

I've found a utility called Printscreen 2000 which works amazingly well, but I was wondering if anyone knows why my problem would be intermittent?

Thank you all for your help!
