okay the print screen on my computer wont work. You know that button on the keyboard you press and it copies your computer screen. It doesnt work, it never has since ive had the computer. would anyone have any idea why not? I doubt it's in the keyboard because like i said it's never worked and everything else on this keyboard works. Alright thanks.

It doesn't actually print the screen.
Print screen takes a "photo" of the desktop you are looking at and copies it to the clipboard. You can then open up photoshop/paintshop/paint/word etc and then paste the image into that.
Extra tip - Alt + print screen only takes the active window, not the whole desktop.
