What camera brand and or model are you using?
Are you using a NVR or BI or neither? Do you just have the camera?
When you say screen shot, why not just grab the image straight from the camera, NVR or BI?
Can you script? Are you on windows? Have you considered Python, VB or other scripting solutions? If you only have the camera these might be attractive solutions.

The quickest way is to enter 1440 minutes as shown below in the first pic.
So if every day you want an image taken from a specific camera, navigate to that cameras config via BI and enter 1440 for how often you want the pic to be taken.
So if you want a picture taken every day at 5pm. Then do this at 5pm on one day and all following days will take a pic at 5pm.
If you need the image to be at a very precise time, then possibly the "Events Schedule..." button on the cameras schedule tab would be a better option for you
