I don't use IE for many reasons. Mostly I don't like supporting the monopoly of Microsoft. I'm just telling you that so you know I am inferring from what I know in Netscape to IE.

Dialog boxes can't be printed directly as far as I know. I'm sure there are some real tricky programs which might capture the text in dialog boxes and print them. Maybe look around on download.com

Pop-up windows may very well print using a right-click of your mouse. This is always a good thing to check. Just put your mouse over the pop-up window and right click. If a print option comes up you might be in good shape. Otherwise you can look in the File menu of the parent program for such an option.

One alternative is to capture the window as a graphic then paste the graphic into a picture program (or Acrobat, or Word, etc) then print from there.

This screen capture uses the keyboard Print Screen button. It will work to capture the pixels on the screen.

Other than those suggestions maybe you can give some better idea of what you are trying to accomplish so that we can be more specific.

Hope this gets you on the track.

Please help me.I am unable to use the scanner and printer at the same time because a pop-up warning comes up saying printer cable not work-ing but when i use the printer by itself the printer works perfectly.The scanner does work by itself also but i cannot make copies since the printer does not work with the scanner. I thank you for your help. Olivia

Error message:
There was an error printing to LPT1: for (Apple personal Lase writer NTR). Cannot access the port. May be in use by another program. Quit other programs and try again.

I have no other programs open so not sure whats happening. It appears that I only have the one port for printing. What should i do?

Popup boxes can be printed by pushing the "Print Scrn sysRq" button, opening and pasting into paint. Then print off.
