hope this snippet of python from the examples section helps:

# Capture the display and place in a tiff
def CaptureImage():
    w2i = vtk.vtkWindowToImageFilter()
    writer = vtk.vtkTIFFWriter()
    w2i.SetInput(renWin)
    w2i.Update()
    writer.SetInputConnection(w2i.GetOutputPort())
    writer.SetFileName("image.tif")
    renWin.Render()
    writer.Write()

cheers!!
