Hi Lothringer15,

welcome to Club VAIO Questions & Answers forum..:smileyhappy:

The Prt Sc key (print screen) does not actually allow you to send an image direct to your printer..

You can use the Prt Sc key is to take a snapshot of your computer screen and copy it to the clipboard, then you can pstae the image into either MS Paint, a document, like word, or an graphics application like Adobe photoshop elements..

Depending on the operating system you have you can use the Snipping Tool to capture a screen or area of..

If you are unsure how to do this..

Go to Start, all programs

Browse to Accessories and click on Snipping Tool.

Once the snipping tool has opened drag the + over the image you wish to capture.

Once happy with the image click on Save and select the destination folder you wish to save your image to, then click save..:smileyhappy:
