I don't know your laptop, so I can't tell you where it is. But here, it's
my standard ticket on how to use it:

In the days of DOS, the print screen button to print the screen. But
in all versions of Windows, it works differently and the name of
the key is now an anachronism. The key is not to print the screen.
PrtScrn captures the entire screen and Alt-PrtScrn captures activate
window.

Either a capture of the image in the Windows Clipboard. Once it is in
the Clipboard, you can paste (Ctrl + V) into any application that
supports graphics (Windows Paint, other graphics software, even your)
favorite text processing). You can change or add to the image you
like, then print it out.

This ability to manipulate the image in a program before printing
is an improvement on the original method of printing the whole back.
But if you like that old return facility, there are several
freeware/shareware programs from third parties which can do, such as

    If you do not see print screen button on your keyboard then I suggest to use the on-screen keyboard and check to see if it helps:

  • Print screen button does not work

    I have a Lenovo R61i Notebook.  Print screen button does nothing.  How can I print screen on this computer?

    I'm not familiar with your product, but on my SL500, there is a Fn key at the bottom left of the keyboard.  If I press on that and press the print screen (F6) and then open my Windows Paint program (or any other image editing program, I guess), I can 'stick' the image of the screen then change for my taste and export in jpg or bitmap or print on my printer.

  • When I press the END/PRTSC for print screen button, nothing happens.

    original title: END/PRTSC Key

    When I press the END/PRTSC for print screen button, nothing happens.  How can I print screen on my new laptop computer?

    Using the PrtScr button takes a screenshot and put it in your Clipboard. You must then use another program (e.g. Windows 7 Paint) and paste so that it becomes a new image which you can then manipulate or print.

    "Print Screen" is a misnomer.
