When you have the image you want on your screen, press PrtSc (top row of keyboard).
Open your Paint program, right click and click 'paste'.
Your image will appear, and you can save it in the usual way.

If you don't have a Paint program, use the one in Windows.
Start - all programs - accessories - paint

On my google earth there is a task bar above the image that has buttons for print and e-mail. they are at the far right of the toolbar

Thank you both,I've tried both methods everything goes ok right up to the "print" command and then nothing.I know that the printer is ok.This is what I was getting before I put my query.

If you press the print icon on google earth taskbar.You will get a box come up with print heading.Do not press the print button yet. First ensure that graphic of 3d view has a dot in the circle( not most recent search results)
now press the print button.I hope this works for you ,it does for me every time.Fingers crossed and best of luck.

Thank you baitress but I have solved the printer problem.If I don't clear the backlog of already printed items from the document listing it won't work(strange)But I have another problem the ink levels are not being shown,any ideas please?????

[baitress]

the ink levels would depend on what make of printer you have. I have an HP printer, inkjet F2180. the levels are shown in HP Solution Centre. Unfortunately I can't give an opinion on other makes.

when you get the correct location on the google earth.

press the printscrn tab in the keyboard,
press the ctrl+c tab from the keyboard

after that open the paint from the below path.

open the paint from the start menu> programs>accessories>paint

when the paint open right click on it and select the paste tab .

you get the screen print preview in the paint and save it.
