DOS has no clipboard to copy it on to.

You can use the Windoze DOS prompt and printscreen it from there.

I don't think you can, unless you are running it in a window.

ahah, printscreen is really the true name in ms-dos , it tries to send the screen information on the parallel port (or elsewhere if you used the mode command to redirect it)

There's actually a way to do it, I remember seeing it somewhere but never took much notice.

Well ... I do not know excactly how to do it. But you could try and use DosBox which is a windows program that simulates Dos so you can run all your old dos games on all the new windows versions. DosBox may very well have a screenshot ability. I dont know if it does but it would be very likely?
