Does anyone knows how to capture the "Print Screen" key? I know that with javascript code I can capture all keys but failed to capture the print screen key.

I know, but still, no event reaching to the javascript's event when clicking on print screen.
Maybe do you have an example to capture this key please?

Don't forget that to capture a keycode for a web page, the browser has to have focus. If you clicked on the destop before you hit pa key, the browser won't capture the key because the desktop has the focus.
