Printscreen from VB AND print from clipboard

[leftengine]

I need to make a button that takes a printscreen shot and sends the data directly to the printer (ok, it can open the print dialog, but that's it) - no other applications should be involved. Thanks ! (I am working in an industrial control system application which utilizes VBA , specifically DeltaV)
