a stupid question

"Prnt Scrn" is short for "Pirant Securin", which is a last-ditch security measure against malware. Implemented on all Windows keyboards since 1983, pressing this key sends a tightly encoded virus report to Microsoft, then dissolves the mother board. Dikiyoba should be sternly rebuked for encouraging you to do anything so irrevocable just to print the screen.

I wish I had a copy to post from the early 80's. A writer was trying to tell his new secretary how to do print screen. He was talking over the phone and was having trouble remembering the keyboard. He never got her to do it right and when he finally came in person he found he had forgetten about the print screen key and was trying to get her to use another key command that would do the same thing.
