Publisher's description of Screen Print & Capture 32
From Provtech:
Screen Print & Capture 32 allows you to print the full desktop, active window, predefined area, or user-selected area of the screen with a single key press. You can add user-defined headers and footers with date and time stamps, resize the printed image, convert to grayscale or negative image, and fade or resize the image to reduce toner or ink usage. You can capture screen images and save them to a user-selected local or network folder in either GIF, BMP, JPEG, or PNG formats with user-configurable file naming. You can use it to capture an area of the screen to your clipboard and paste it directly into your documents. Screen Print & Capture 32 can be set up to be completely transparent to the end user.

Editor's review of Screen Print & Capture 32
This basic screen-capture utility lacks advanced features, but it works just fine and costs nothing. The tabbed configuration screen gives you options for capturing your entire desktop, the active window, or user-defined area. Though capturing screen areas is easy to do using one of four available hot keys, some operations could be smoother. For instance, when selecting an area of the screen to capture, you have to first move your mouse to choose the portion, then right-click the system-tray icon to actually grab it. You can quickly print a group of screens or save the images in PNG, BMP, JPEG, or GIF formats. An autonaming function allows the user to quickly save a series of program images. However, don't look to Screen Print & Capture 32 if you need to perform more advanced tasks such as capturing full-blown videos with sound. Nor will you find any editing features for cropping or annotating captures. Still, users with simple needs who are looking for a totally free screen-capture program will find this application sufficient.

Screen Print & Capture 32
Excellent! Truly a must have!

Pros: This is one nice program! The ease of use is phenomenal! Quick and simple auto-saving features make this program worth a look at. You can assign a button to take a snapshot of the entire desktop, or a single window, and have it either save it to a folder with an automatically assigned name, or ask you where to put it and what to name it. Truly a great program, and definitely worth a look at!
Cons: Free for non-commercial use.

Worth what you pay for it

Pros: Yes, for a free utility, its really quite good - However -
Cons: All it does is capture the screen. As a software support worker, whenever I capture a screen I need to add highlights, text and clip art arrows.
If you need this functionality, I can recommend either Snaggit or the M8 Multi Clipboard.
With Snaggit, the arrows and text can be antialiased, which makes them nice and smooth but once youve added them, they are a fixture.
With the M8 multi clipboard theyre not so smooth, but you can move them around till theyre just where you want them. You can also combine any number of screen shots inro a single graphic, which you cant do with either of the others.

You dont need this

Cons: What I dislike about this (and most other screen capture programs) is that it capitalizes on the fact that most people dont know they can capture the screen just by pressing Prt Scr for the whole screen or Alt + Prt Scr for the active window. The screen is then available on the Windows clipboard and you can paste it into Paint to print it or save it to file.
If you need to capture screens, then you also need to do something with them, other than just saving or printing them. I use a little program called the M8 Multi Clipboard. Let me tell you about it: - Whenever you press Prt Scr or Alt+Prt Scr and Windows captures the screen to the clipboard, M8, being a multi clipboard also captures it. But it doesnt just offer the ability to save it. You can crop it, rotate it, size it, add text, add clip art arrows, and draw on it. You can even take several screen shots, cut the bits you want and combine them into a single graphic. And thats just thrown in as an extra to its main purpose as a multi clipboard!

Quick and easy!

Pros: I wanted something quick to print off an entire desktop as opposed to just saving then printing the active window. This was the first item to come up when I searched for "print screen" on cNet/download.com, but I'm glad I didn't waste time looking for anything else. BTW, it works on Vista as well.
