As the title says, I have an application that I need to run in a TTY. I also need to take a screenshot of it while it's running. How can I take a screenshot of an application running in a TTY without framebuffering enabled?

You can use ttyrec
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ttyrec

There are a a few options, look for
ttyrec -u
Which allows you to record to a zip file you can later unzip and should be able to play in a regular terminal later that you can easily take a screenshot of.

echo "FRAMEBUFFER=y" | sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash; sudo update-initramfs -u
reboot.
