Want to take a screenshot but can’t find your Print Screen button? On some keyboards, the key is labelled differently.

This tutorial will show you how to take a screenshot when you can’t find the Print Screen key.

Finding the Right Key

Try to look for anything along the lines of Print ScreenPrint ScPr Sc, or PRTSC. On laptops that use keyboards with a compact layout, the Print Screen key is often combined with other keys (e.g. Uppercase, Lowercase, Fn, etc.).

How to Check If the Screenshot Has Been Taken?

To be sure that the screenshot was taken, open Paint or Word and press CTRL + V. If the screenshot is pasted onto the page, then it was taken. If not, you will need to repeat the process.

FN + Print Screen key
