    Are there any other commands on the same button as the Print Screen? For Example: my print screen is on the same button as my ( key, but on the very top of my screen. I have to enable the alternate set of keys by pressing a button on my keyboard.

    I think it's specific to the keyboard, for me its with the 'F' series, like F1 F2 F3, and when the button isn't pressed, then im pressing buttons that also say 'Help', 'Office Home', 'Task Pane', etc on them

    Good luck. Something else that might help is posting a picture of your keyboard... not necessarily your exact one but maybe just the same model as yours

    Or you could check the instruction manual that
    most likely came with it, not trying to be rude...

    does your keyboard have an 'Fn' button in the bottom left? (next to ctrl I think).. if it does you might need to hold it down when you press prtscrn
