Alt-Print Screen will copy the image to the clipboard. You can then paste
into a document for printing.

But that doesn't do a "Screenshot" it only copies the active window. To do a
Screenshot you need to press Alt_PrtScr

I have no idea what you're trying to get at, or what "that" and
"it" are meant to refer to. As I said above, PrintScrn alone
captures the entire screen, and Alt-PrintScrn captures the active
window.
