Since it took me forever to find the answer, I thought I would provide it here. Originally found after sifting through all the messages on this thread.
To do a print screen while running Windows in Boot Camp and using a Mac keyboard, use the keyboard combination: SHIFT + FN + F11
And just for reference, to do a print screen in OSX, you use Command + Shift + 3 or Command + Shift + 4

Shift > Command > F14 worked for me. Weird.

Hi, this is a great tip and like you I have been searching for ages!
I am not using bootcamp, rather VMware. It is a similar style of program where I can switch between Windows and Mac on my Macbook however the main difference between bootcam and VMware is that I can switch between anytime rather than having to boot up in one or the other.
I tired the SHIFT + FN + F11 tip but it did not work and I don’t have a F14 key (only goes to F12).
Does anyone know what I could try to Print screen in this instance?

I have found the answer!
To screen grab:
Shift + Command (apple key) + 4
It is not F4 but simply the number 4 key.

This definitely should go up in google search results!!!
Cheers!!!

Yea. We have been looking for this for a long time. Needed the shift/apple/f14. PERFECT Thanks!!

Thanks so much for this post!
Just wanted to add that if you want a screen shot of just the one window that is in focus (in Windows on Boot Camp with a Mac Keyboard), its ALT (option) – Shift – FN – F11. Hold them all down in order.
