ZBook 17 G6 English - Print Screen

[REG1276]

I am having trouble determining how to access print screen functions with this keyboard on my new ZBook. Manual does not seem to help. Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks.

On many machines now (from other vendors too) you have to use 2 keys Fn + Prt Sc together to get Print Screen function. This does not mean send Screen to printer, system simply capture screen to Clipboard and you can paste the clipboard to other apps.

You can also use Snipping tool to select an area on screen to capture

Thanks, Banhien, for the response. I am familiar with the Fn + Action Key combo--and how to lock the Fn key on--but I cannot tell which key on my new ZBook is the Prt Sc key. None of them are marked as such, and none in the usual position seem to operate as a print screen key. The keys between the F12 key and the Delete key are, left-to-right:

• A key that turns the screen sharing function on or off.
• A key that automatically answers a Skype for Business call.
• And another that ends such a call.

The owners' manual does not identify a Prt SC key at all. Is there one and if so, which one?

Many thanks.

BTW, I had forgotten the snipping tool. I'll look at that as a possible alternative if there is--how could this be?--no Prt Sc option on this keyboard.

Regarding capturing screen shot with two screens, on a [my] Zbook Bang & Olufsen laptop.  My keyboard has 'prt sc' on the right 'shift' key -> right side.  Using the following key combinations I was able to obtain current window or both screens:

        cntl+fn+shift key -> Both Screens captured.  

        cntl+fn+alt+shift key -> Screen with focus.
