There is one. Probably have to use the function key. The print screen button often has a different colour text.

Not even a key 'Prt Scr'? Screengrab 1.1 should work anyway.

Apologies, just found it. Same key as the "insert" key. Still can't get it to work for some reason though.

Press it along with the 'Fn' key. It's usually bottom left beside the 'Ctrl' key.

I find MWSnap to be a great little program for this kind of stuff.

A good trick is to hold alt while pressing print screen to grab only the active window
