EM, that probably won't work in fullscren. Games take over the keyboard, after all, and printscreen would only take a screenshot if the game is set for that, and that's doubtful in most cases... but it can be done, and fairly easily.
It depends. Are you running it in real DOS, a DOS box in Windows, or an emulator like DOSBox? For the first case, it is completely game-dependant; look in the documentation or readme files or whatever for if the game has a screenshot command. For the second, put it into a window and then hit the Print Screen key, capturing an image of your desktop; this only universally works within Windows, not when the DOS box is maximized to fullscreen. Then paste into an image editor. For the last, um... I forget, but I'm quite sure DOSBox's readmes have info on screenshots somewhere, and it also can be made into a window so you can take a windows printscreen image.
There are also screen-capture programs out there, and video-capture ones too (FRAPS is a popular one of those), for when you want to take videos of a game running, but I've never used them so you'd have to look them up.
