HOW TO PRINT SCREEN?

Guest

I CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THE PRINT SCREEN KEY ON MY
KEYBOARD TO WORK. EVERY OTHER BUTTON WORKS ON MY
KEYBOARD BUT THAT ONE. I DONT KNOW IF I HAVE TO CHANGE
SOME OPTIONS OR WHAT. I'VE TRIED ALT-PRINT SCREEN, CTRL-
PRINT SCREEN, SHIFT-PRINT SCREEN, THE WINDOW BUTTON-PRINT
SCREEN, NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK. I AM JUST TOTALLY
PUZZLED. MY COMPUTER IS ONLY ABOUT A YEAR OLD, AND I HAVE
AN HP. THE PRINTER I USE IS A HP PHOTOSMART 7150. IF
THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE THAT CAN HELP ME PLEASE DO SO,
CUZ I THINK I'VE JUST PULLED OUT MY LAST STRAND OF HAIR.

THANXS

Print screen only puts the image on your clipboard. Open MS Paint (or Word and many
others) paste and print.

Hi

I simply use Alt Prt Scrn. This puts the view that is on the screen into memory. Then, I paste it into another application such as Word or email. Works everytime. I'm using XP home with lots of memory, 640. Are you memory limited, perhaps

.If you press the print screen key and open a word
processor or spreadsheet program, press control/V to paste
the information from screen you can print there. If you
use alt/printscreen it will only copy the active page.
