You will need a web browser and a screen-grabber application. They will both
have to be scriptable so you can call them from your PHP script.

But how you do this really depends on what sort of operating system your
server is running. Try asking in a Windows/Unix/BSD/whatever newsgroup.

On a windows platform (not free - demo versions with warnings ont the
images):

http://www.html2jpg.com/download.htm (blackbox version)

On a Linux Platform with a graphical environment and a browser (free, see
licence) :

I tried all of these and included them in an interface to manage links in
our intranet (php, mysql).
They can get a screenshot of the visible portion of the page (you set the
sizes) or get a screenshot of the whole document (which can be many
screens).
