There are 3 ways: 1. Press the PrintScreen key, 2. Alt+PrintScreen (hold the Alt key and tap the PrintScreen key), 3. Windows+PrintSreen (hold the Windows key and tap the PrintScreen key)
when you press it, it acts as a way to screenshot your current screen in windows.
Open up an image software (like paint, photoshop) or even a document program like word or openoffice
one of the tricks is to combine alt+printscreen to screenshot the active screen.
To use the printscreen function of your laptop do the following:
1. Press the "Printscreen" key (or "Fn" key and "Printscreen" key if it is written in color blue). 2. Open MS-Paint (Click start, programs, accessories, paint) 3. Press "ctrl" and letter "v" to paste the captured screen. 4. You can save the captured screen as an image (jpg, gif, bmp) or you can print it.
Try printing document thru your printer rather than Printscreen feature.
Or Printscreen feature copies to clip board which you should be able to open and paste to new document then use your printer set up to adjust.
Make sure your printer set up is set to scale to fit page.
In the old DOS days, Print Screen would send a copy of the screen to the printer.
In Windows, Print Screen sends a copy to the Clip Board. So, what you need to do is open an application like WordPad, MS Word, Paint or some other program and Paste to a new file. Then you can print the image from that file.
A side note: The PrintScreen key captures the whole screen, the ALT-PrintScreen key combination captures only the active window.
