WinXP does not include DOS. It has command prompt which is certainly DOS-like, but not all previous functions are there. This may be one.

Hmm this interesting, not sure why you would want to print screen a full window of the MS-DOS window, but that's besides the point. To answer your question my suggestion would be to simply make the window full screen (keeping it in window mode) not using ALT+ENTER to make it a complete full screen.

You can right click on the title bar and adjust the window size properties, ie chaning width to 200, height to 300 and double-click the blue bar to make the size full screen (windowed).

Reason why I need to print screen is because, I have a software that run on Dos & it will automatically open the file in full screen. I try to use your method to reduce the size of the command prompt screen but it didn't work also, automatially change to full screen when file is opened. I also try screen capture software, but was unable to use it at command prompt full screen. Any other method or software  that can print screen for WIn XP command prompt at full screen.

Help!!!
