  Tech Tip :: PRINT SCREEN KEY
 

Some people believe that when they press the Print Screen Key (Prt Scr) that the image will automatically be sent to the printer. However, the function of this key is to take a snapshot or picture of your computer screen and copy it to the clipboard. Think of it as if you copied something from a document and it's now on your clipboard waiting to be pasted into its final destination.

  • Press your Print Screen Key (Prt Scr) and take a snapshot of your computer screen.
  • Open a graphics or word processing program.
  • Press the Ctrl + V buttons your keyboard to Paste the screenshot into your program for editing and saving.
