I recently bought a laptop pc, and since the keyboard is smaller, some of the buttons are merged, such as the insert button is also the print screen button, but I can't figure out how to use the print screen function instead of the insert function. Does anyone know how?

Thanks in advance.

On my laptop the fn key is coloured blue and the alternative functions of the keys that have a pairing is also blue.

e.g. the "home" button has "prt sc" on it also, but in blue, so for me to use my print screen function I have to hold down the fn key.

btk1w1 is correct. See page 7 of HP Notebook Tour User Guide for description of the fn key function and other components unique to your laptop.

Thank you very much, all! It worked! I'm very thankful for this, as it is very important to my graphics editing that I often do.

Thank you again, and good night, all!
