Hi there, I've just bought a MacBook Pro with Touch bar and installed Windows 10 using bootcamp. Everything works fine as in my previous generation Macbook Pro apart from taking screenshots using what it would be in a Windows Laptop the Print Screen key. By using keyboard shortcuts, you can print screen on a Mac. You can capture specific windows or select an area to capture. What they call 'Print Screen' in Windows is known as screenshots or screen capture in Mac. Depending on the screen capture action you need, there are several keyboard combinations to use.
'Print Screen' is a term used in the Windows environment to explain and give the ability for users to capture the content visible on the screen. Specifically, on Windows compatible keyboards, you will notice Print Screen is an actual button. On the Mac keyboards no button is assigned or labelled that way.
The good news is through a series of keystrokes you can perform the same function as Print Screen. On a Mac, you might hear the language of how to screen capture or how to screenshot.
