How to Print Screen on a Toshiba Laptop

Capturing the Screen's Content

1. Select a screen content to capture. Once you are at a place on your desktop that you want to take a picture of, you can begin taking your screen capture.

2. Capture the screen's content. Press the 'Print screen' button to copy the screen's contents. Look for a 'PrtScn' key along the function keys of your keyboard, which are the F1 to F12 keys.

   1. The 'PrtScn' button will let you copy the screen's contents into the computer's clipboard.

Saving the Screen Capture

Using even just a basic image editor like MS Paint can work for saving your screen capture.

1. Launch MS Paint. Click the Windows Orb at the lower left; it looks like the Windows logo inside a blue circle.On the search bar, type in 'Paint' and click it in the results. This should open up the software.

2. Paste the screen capture. You should then see an empty canvas on the Paint software. Now you can paste the screen capture on it; do this by pressing Ctrl + V.

3. Save the image. When you are satisfied with the image, you can save it. Click 'File' at the upper left of the Paint window; a drop-down menu should appear. Click on 'Save As,' and the software should then prompt you to enter the file name and format to save the image as.

4. Name your image file and choose an image format. You can enter the name you want for your image on the File Name field. Then in the Save As field, choose a format you want. You can choose between JPG, BMP, and GIF, among others. Click JPG if you're unsure.

   1. Your picture should then be saved, and you can open it in the file location.
