In the viewer toolbar there is an icon showing a camera. This allows you to write snapshots of the 3D scene to a file or to a printer. If no printers show up in the list then probably they are not properly installed. In the latter case you can still print to a PostScript file on disk and print that file from a different computer. You can also use the command line interface to make snapshots. This is useful for generating animations via a Tcl script. The syntax is viewer snapshot , where denotes the viewer window to be captured. The format of the output file is determined automatically from the file name suffix.
