Side key functions on HP#5189 keyboard

You need to press PrtScr or Print Screen button to capture the screen to the clip board. I believe on your laptop you need to hold the fn key down to select it. On the bottom left of the keyboard is a key that has fn on it. Any key on your keyboard that has a second function will need the fn key to access this second key function. PrtScr button should be on the top row right hand side of the keyboard.

Hold down the fn key and press the PrtScr key and then you can paste it into a document or paint or whatever. The PrintScreen function works in versions of windows I have ever used, from Windows 3.11 for workgroups to Windows 8.

This may be due to a numlock setting. Try holding down the Function key,it should be on the bottom left corner of your keyboard as "Fn", and press either Num Lock or Scr Lk.

The Num Lock and Scr Lk keys should be on the upper right hand side of the keyboard.

Make SURE your keyboard is of this type. Otherwise you will be breaking keys off, Duong.

Keyboards can have various functions for each key that are enabled by first pressing a modifier key. Some keyboards may have an Fn key that stands for 'Function' that are identified by a bluish-purple color.

You would have to hold down the Fn key before being able to use the corresponding function.

Other keys may have items that can only be used once you press the NmLk (Number Lock) key. Usually you only have to press the NmLk key once to enable these alternate functions and then press it again to disable.

what is the operating system you are using ?

If the keys are broken, they can be replaced. It is also possible that the keyboard cable is partially unplugged from motherboard. contact +919811049801

hope it helps :)

You may have activated a shortcut key on your keyboard such as the Fn (function) key. It looks like this

Fn and usually situated on the bottom left hand side of your keyboard near the left hand cntrl button.

Some function keys when pressed once remain on. Once they are on they can cause different symbols to appear in place of the normal keyboard ones. If you press your Fn key again and then try typing on the keyboard once again it may help fix your problem.

I hope this helps

Finally I figured it out. Hold the shift control function keys at the same time. This will turn the green key function on and off.
