The print screen is a very important function on any operating system. There are many times that we need to print the computer screen we are working on. Taking a print screenshot on a Windows-based computer is relatively straightforward, as there is a dedicated key on the Windows-based computer keyboard to serve this purpose. However, those who are new to the Mac operating system are dilemma about how to print screens on a Mac because there is no such key on a Mac based keyboard. But even on a Mac based system, taking a screen shot of the computer screen is not too difficult. The steps you need to follow are as follows:
• Screenshot of the entire screen is required. Move to the screen shooting screenshot. Now look for a special key on your keyboard. There is the key "รข €". This key is sometimes called a flower key or a function key, or an Apple key. Press Apple key + Shift + 3 for a few seconds. You can click sound and release the key. Click the screen with the mouse to complete. I learned how to print screens on Mac.
• In case you need a screenshot of just a part of the screen. After a few seconds press and release Apple key + Shift + 4. The shape of the mouse cursor changes this time and it changes to the + sign. Use this + sign to select the portion of the computer screen where you want to take a snapshot. Once you have made your selection, an image file is generated on your desktop and you can see that the file is the screenshot you need.
• Many times we need a printed screen of the specific application window we are working on. In that case, please press and release Apple key + Shift + 4 just after 2 seconds. The mouse cursor changes to the + sign as expected. Then press the space bar key once. This changes the mouse cursor to the camera sign. Clicking the application window with that camera generates a screenshot. To learn how to print the screen on a Mac in a simple way, follow the steps below.
