Print screen (often abbreviated Prt Scr, Print Scrn, Prt Scn or Prnt Scrn) is a key present on most keyboards, typically situated in the same section as the break key and scroll lock key.
When pressing the keys (Ctrl and Print scr) together in the Window based computer, the image of the screen is captured on the clipboard.
If one open a graphics program (like paint) and selects a new canvas, the image can be transferred to the program by selecting "paste" on to this new canvas.
Saving this file results in capturing the image onto a file.
