Problem Title:
M1.5 EPIC has no Printing Capability


Problem Description:
Keywords: EPIC, print

Urgency: standard


Currently EPIC has no printing capability.


Solution 1:

You may use a "screen capture" utility to do this.

Use the Unix Snapshot function :

Snapshot is an OpenWindows XView utility that  allows
users to  save images from their workstation screens into a
raster file.

For more information run on the unix command line :

man snapshot




Solution 2:

On a PC, you can copy the active window
(EPIC, for instance) to the clipboard by
pressing ALT + PRINT_SCREEN. Then open Paint
(or anything that allows an image, such as Word),
and Paste it in. You can print that document.

Alternatively, you can get a shareware screen
capture program (try www.download.com).

This problem will be solved in an upcoming
update to EPIC.
