Thank you Dave for the information.
 
We are just now considering to purchace a similar kind of slide maker as
Dunn Instruments "Microcolor" but one that is sold by Polaroid. It's a lower
priced one ( Price abouth 1000-2000 US dollars).. The Machine is called
Quick Print and it is able to grab and print imagest up to 800 x 600 (0 up
to 31 kHz) display. How about  Dunn Instruments "Microcolor" can it handle
higher resolutions. We would like to print images from two monitors with the
same printer (One is a normal VGA signal and the other is a higher
resolution one (resolution 1200x1000 or something near this) where we
display 4 images simultaneously . The 1200x100 is too high a resolution for
at least Polaroid printer, so we have desider to use an additional frame
grabber to get out one image at a time in standard video resolution.
Polaroid works just fine in our case ecxept that the height and width of the
image is different with different sources.
