How to use the PrtSc key on T42

[lemmerdeur]

I know that the PrtSc is for the print Screen and that tou have to paste the screen shot into paint but when I press the key, nothing happen. I di a search here and IBM and couldn't find the instruction. Could you explain how to use that key.

Press printscreen, on the active window that you want to capture, then go to Paint, and press "CTRL + V"


Tadaaaaaaa

There are programs that allow copying only the section of the screen you like.

You can also capture only the active window, with pressing "ALT" and then "Printscreen"
