Hey techman,

Many Mac-Windows keyboad equivalents (including Print Screen) are give at About.com's Keyboard Equivalents ( http://macos.about.com/library/weekly/aa101601a.htm ) Page.  Remember, these will be pre-OSX systems only.  Were you looking for a way to Print Screen from OS X?  It's jut a bit different.

Pressing Cmnd-Ctrl-Shift-3 on your OS8.x or OS9.x Mac will copy a TIFF of your screen to the clipboard.  You can paste this into virually any application (word processors, image viewers, etc) to modify of print it.

You can also download shareware or freeware like Snapz Pro ( http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzpro/ ) to extend your abilities to do these things; but as you can see from the About.com link the list of features already built-in to the OS is already extensive.

I'm pretty sure there's a key combination like Ctrl+Shift+1 or F1, or something like that, that will allow you to actually select the area you want to screenshot with a rectangular marquee-like tool, and then will just save the image as a 0906in your main system hard drive as like, Desktop001 or something.
