How to Print Your Pictures Using Microsoft 'Paint'
Step 1.
First, open Microsoft's 'Paint' program.
You can do this by, left clicking on the Start Button (which is located at the bottom left corner of your computer screen) and then clicking on the 'Paint' icon (if it is present) or by, left clicking on 'All Programs' and selecting 'Paint' from the list that appears.
Step 2.
Next, press the 'Alt' and 'PrtSc' keys together to capture your picture and copy it to the clipboard.
Tip 1.
Pressing the 'Alt' and 'PrtSc' keys together copies the current window contents to the clipboard so remember to ensure that the last 'thing' you clicked on was your drawing page on the opossums-art-shack.com website.
Tip 2.
The 'Alt' key is usually located towards the left hand side on the bottom row of your keyboard and the 'PrtSc' key is usually to be found on the top row just to the right of the F1 to F12 keys.
Step 3.
Once the 'Paint' program has fired up, left click on 'Edit' and select 'Paste' from the drop down menu.
The contents of the clipboard will then appear in the main window of the 'Paint' program.
Step 4.
Now, left click on the 'Rectangle Select' icon which is located in the top right corner of the 'Tools' popup and drag a rectangle around the picture that you want to print out.
Step 5.
Once you have made your selection, hold the mouse inside the rectangle and right click the mouse to popup the next menu. Scroll down to Copy To... and left click the mouse.
The 'Save As' window will then appear and you can choose a name for your picture and the location where you want to save it to.
Step 6.
Finally, navigate to the folder where you saved your picture (using Windows Explorer), double left click on it, and hit the Print button to print out your picture.
