Image Hardcopy

A hardcopy of the image shown on the image display merged with the contents of the overlay channel can be made via COPY/DISPLAY.  
Grayscale and color hardcopies can be produced only on Laser printers which support PostScript. Typical command sequences for getting an image hardcopy are:

LOAD/IMAGE frame ! load image into image display
COPY/DISPLAY ! make hardcopy of screen

or

ASSIGN/DISPLAY device ! assign hardcopy device as display
LOAD/IMAGE frame ! load image directly to hardcopy

where available devices and special parameters are described in Appendix  C. In addition, a set of device specific commands are normally defined to set it up and to get status information (see Appendix C).

The command COPY/DISPLAY first creates a Postscript file of the contents of the display and then prints this file on the specified hardcopy device. Thus, you can also produce just a Postscript file for inclusion in another Postscript document.
