It should be assigned to the Print Screen button IMHO.

Agreed. the number 0 key is for typing the number 0... I keep on accidentally using it when naming my ships

Psshhh. Why on Earth should the screen printing function be assigned to the "Print Screen" key?

Apparently, people decline to make Print Screen the actual print screen key because it involves somewhat more work to trap it, as Windoze already uses it, so they take the lazy way out.
