Answer 1

Another possible solution would be to increase the Buffer and or / window-size of the console.

Right click on the frame and choose Defaults - this entry sets the default values for all console windows. In Windows 7 click on the layout-tab and increase the "Screen Buffer Size" height

If you choose the entry Properties in the context menu, these settings only apply to the current instance of the console.

Answer 2

Add > output.txt to the end of your command:

mvn archetype:generate > output.txt

This will redirect standard out into a file called output.txt
