Printing Sims/R screenshots using Flash-IT
This utility allows Macintosh computers to
capture screenshots on their Mac desktop and send it to the printer.
Users can capture a Sims/R screen with a hotkey combination, sending the
print job directly to the printer. This makes printing screenshots
much faster than using the Print options under the Action menu in Sims/R.
