screen dump
Monitor image copy
A screen dump is a digital image capturing exactly what appears on a computer display at a given moment—the entire screen contents saved as a file or sent to a printer.
The term dates from early computing when such images were often "dumped" directly to a printer.
Now usually called a screenshot or screen capture: Take a screen dump of the error message.
