Print Screen is called: Print
Screen
SysRq.

Print Screen in a botten
that takes the WHOLE screen as an image.
In paint, and you've pressed Print
Screen
SysRq,

press Ctrl + V or right click and press Paste.
I hope that helps.

If you don't know what "Print Screen" is, it is the key that says: Print
Screen
SysRq.
it is RIGHT on top of the "Insert" key.
Happy now? Good!

Print screen is a button on your keyboard that takes a picture of the whatever is displaying on your screen. The buttons usually near the top right of your keyboard!
After you press that you can paste the picture of your screen into windows paint or something else that can display a jpeg file!

print screen is what it means, if u are using a laptop it prtsc should be next to F12. If you are using a desktop computer with a big keyboard then it should be on the little square of keys and also next to the F12 button. :) I hope this helps
