Diann,
I'm not sure whether you are asking to print what is visible in a
window on the screen or whether you want to print the contents of a
window, ie the list of contents of a folder, so I'll describe both
(a)To print the visible contents of a window:
1.hold down <apple> + Shift + 4
2.Your cursor will change to a crosshair. Position the cursor over the
window you want to print and press the spacebar.
3. The crosshair will now change to a camera and highlight the
currently active window. Click the mouse button to take a picture of
the window.
4. A .pdf file will appear on your desktop. You can open this in
Preview and print as desired.
(b) Alternatively, if you want to print out the contents of a window,
you need to take the following steps:
1. open print center (in your utilities folder)
2. Select the folder you want to print the contents of in the finder.
drag this folder on top of the print center icon in the dock
3. let go!
4. This should switch you into print center and a print dialog will
pop up. Select the appropriate printer, settings and press print. Voila!
I hope these instructions are understandable. If you get stuck, you can
email me or look at an alternate explanation:
