Is there a way to print directly from the Snipping tool whitout having to paste the snip or save it and open in a different program?

Hi,

Click the " ? " on the Snipping Tool for HELP. To print a Snip it has to be put into

Paint or another program. The advantage of using the Snipping Tool is that you

don't have to print the entire screen.

Start - type in Search box -> Snipping Tool    find at top of list and double click on it.

    I see so many requests to print from snipping tool. All solutions are not good and take extra time.  Sending to  Outlook not a solution as I use another program. Microsoft should set snipping tool to print. I want an explanation as to why they don't.  It makes sense to produce solutions to needs. Stop telling me it is better than printscreen. We users know that. WHY DOESN'T MICROSOFT LISTEN?

    When Snipping Tool was in beta (late 2008 I think), I was on the test group, and I told them then that it should be able to print.   I mean, duh, no brainer.

    The Microsoft people in charge didn't agree.   They never gave a good reason, just didn't think it was appropriate. 

    It's frustrating dealing with people like that...
