I imagine that if you take screen shots, you can then print your screen shots, too, if you are so inclined. Unprintable file? HA!

The ability for physicians to get this kind of information can save the patient so much time and money.<br /><br />In the future, you should take actual screen shots with the iPhone by holding down the home and power button on the top of the phone.
