When I press the print screen key on my keyboard nothing
happends and nothing prints on my printer. I have even
tried ctrl prt scr, and alt prt scr. How do I print the
screen shown on my computer from the internet without
going to the file menu. Any answers please email me at
(e-mail address removed)
Thank you :)

Jane;
Press the "Print Screen" key.
Then go to an application such as Microsoft Paint.
Start/All Programs/Accessories/Paint
Click Edit, click Paste.
From there you can print, save etc.

Greetings --

Pressing the <PrtScn> key copies the entire display to the
clipboard. Pressing <ALT>+<PrtScn> copies only the active Window to
the clipboard. To view the screen capture, open a graphics program,
such as MS Paint, and press <CTRL>+V. This will paste the contents of
the clipboard (your screenshot) into the open file, and allow you to
view it or save it as a file for later use.
