GRAPHICS--Notes

Printing the contents of the screen To print the contents of the screen, press the SHIFT+PRINT SCREEN key combination. If the computer is in 320 x 148 x 200 color graphics mode and if the printer type is color1 or graphics, the GRAPHICS command prints the screen contents with as many as four shades of gray. If the computer is in 640 x 148 x 200 color graphics mode, GRAPHICS prints the screen contents sideways on the paper (landscape orientation). You cannot use the SHIFT+PRINT SCREEN key combination to print the contents of a screen to a PostScript printer. Effect on memory The GRAPHICS command decreases the amount of available conventional memory. Loading a new profile If you have already loaded a printer profile and you want to load another one by using the GRAPHICS command, the new profile must be smaller than the one already loaded. To load a new profile that is larger than the one currently loaded, you must restart your system and then use the GRAPHICS command to load the new profile. If you try to use only the GRAPHICS command to load a new profile that is larger than the currently loaded profile, MS-DOS displays the following message: Unable to reload with profile supplied
