This article is FANTASTIC. This is a CRITICAL function to using a personal computer in my opinion. I’ve not been able to do this in Windows without using SnagIt version 3.1 from 1997 or so. Now I don’t need to rely on an antique DOS program.
Now if someone could do this for Mac OS X I’d be completely satisfied.
I have attempted to use your app: “https://1drv.ms/u/s!AslOfY4IzwvrvOgM136WPX9_aBniBw?e=3jNTdE” and get the following message each time: “This item might not exist or is no longer available”. What’s up?
We updated the download link. Please try again. Sorry about this problem.

Another way, IF you use dropbox, in your dropbox preferences, select the “share screenshots to dropbox”. When you use PRINTSCREEN only (Not windows printscreen), immediately a dialogue box comes up saying it’s share to dropbox. Click on the immediately and the pic comes up including a printer icon. Plus an advantage to this (besides ability to share screenshots) is you don’t have to hunt for the folder.

Fantastic article. I’ve been waiting decades for another simple solution to this problem.
I have been using SnagIt Ver 3.1 dating from approx 1994 for this immediate screen to printer function on all versions of Windows through Win10,
but I live in fear that someday it will stop working. I consider all the solutions that use the scratchpad or other intermediate process as “monkey motion” and a total and utter waste of time.
Now if the same function could be available on the Mac it might make it a worthwhile computer for serious work. Without this function I consider Mac as toys and limit my use of them as much as possible.

I’ve been using the free version of PicPick (currently at 7.0.1) for a long time to prt sc as well as its many other options when appropriate. The paid version is only required for users as defined at its website and for a very limited time is discounted.

Some of its function can be also done by other programs you already have installed but the PicPick implementation may be preferable for your circumstance.

Hello. It’s a false positive.
The script is compiled with PS2EXE and some antiviruses detect it as suspicious.
You can check the code using the link to GitHub if you want.
Also, this is the link to the PS2EXE on GitHub: https://github.com/MScholtes/PS2EXE.
