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.

    Print from the snipping tool without saving.

     

    1. Select the area to snip with the snipping tool.
    2. Select "Send Snip".
    3. Right click the attached image in the email page and select print.
    4. Select open.
    5. Print to your selected printer.

    If using Outlook 2010 it's important to note that when selecting "Send to" that you select "Email Recipient (as attachment)" otherwise the image just appears in the body of the email. When it's sent as an attachment, of course, you'll see the attached file which you can right click to get the print option.

    Seriously? No print button after a 3rd OS that this is in?  I would expect Windows 8 to have it.

    Interesting and helpful, but with my Outlook 2007 on Win7 there is no Print option.  However with a minor change to above steps, I could print Snip, but with My Name and Subject also printed at top.    I suggest:

    1. Select the area to snip with the snipping tool
    2. Click on the "Send Snip" Icon
    3. Window now shows a New email (In Outlook 2007 in my case)
    4. Left click "Office Button"
    5. Left click Print

    6: Printer Window opens, if settings are correct click OK

    Works OK for me but still not the "real deal"  MS could do better
