I recently installed Lubuntu 20.04.1 which runs with LXQt. I tried to take a picture of my desktop using the Print screen key. However, it is not working. Nothing happens.

I found a post mentioning shutter but when adding the ppa repository and executing the sudo apt install shutter command I get a permission confirmation to install around 96 new packets. That's how shutter is coded to run on gnome and I'm afraid to install all those packets and create conflicts with LXQt.

Is there a way to fix the Print screen key issue without installing any program on Lubuntu 20.04.1?

  • Have you logged in using Lubuntu or LXQt, as PrintScreen should operate correctly when you log in with the Lubuntu session (without any change). LXQt is provided for a purer upstream experience, and some expected keys won't work. – guiverc Sep 02 '20 at 22:09

apt install deepin-screenshot

then go to Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcus choose Add Custom Shortcut

In command enter deepin-screenshot and name it screenshot for example.

And assign any key combination you like.
