By connecting a printer to the USB port of the E5050B, you can print the displayed screen of the E5052B.
You can print/save the images that are stored in the clipboard. However, unless images are stored on the clipboard, the current screen image will be printed/saved.
The System > Dump Screen Image key provides a screen capture function as well. In other words, the image displayed on the screen just before pressing System > Dump Screen Image is saved on the clipboard.
The images stored on the clipboard are cleared after executing print/save operations.
Follow the steps below to prepare for printing.
Power off the E5052B.
Power on the printer and then connect it to the E5052B.
Do not connect unsupported printers to the E5052B.
Power on the E5052B.
Press System.
Press Printer Setup to open the “Printers” window. Select the printer you want to use and set it up by referring to the instruction manual for the printer.
The Printers window will close.
Follow the steps below to print the screen image.
Display the screen that you want to print out.
Press System to save the current screen image on the clipboard.
As required, press Invert Image to toggle the selection of printing either in the displays’s actual colors or in the image’s inverted colors. (This can save much ink by, for example, printing with a white rather than black background.)
Press Print to start printing.
Pressing Abort Printing during the printing operation stops the printing.
If you start printing before the printer is ready (e.g. not powered on yet), the Printers Folder dialog box may be displayed as shown below. In this case, press Cancel to close the Printers Folder dialog box and retry the operation after the printer is ready.
