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.

    Frank, Windows 10 version is much better with the easier print capability. I'd say they might have also fixed your issue. However, depending on the size (width) of capture, it is possible that a wider capture may cause the problem you discussed, much the way MSPaint chops off extents when the image is larger than the form printed on. Referencing your next question about Snagit cost, I would rather use Snipping Tool. Last time I purchased Snagit was 7 years ago and cost was approximately $20+ 

    I would rather use something local to Windows. However, others may like the extra things that Snagit provides. I used to use it a lot, but Snipping Tool is my favorite now!

    Thank you very much for your reply.

    I kind of thought I was using Snagit but I guess I wasn't.  I don't remember buying it however.  Do you know how much Snagit costs?

    Thanks.
