Don't do this - if you're worried about resolution/quality this is possibly the worst thing to do. The Print Screen button takes a screen shot at 72 dpi (Bad for printing.)

To print you should try and work with about 300dpi
So how do you past the problem with 72 dpi? Where is the best place to change the resolution? In PS after or maybe you can change the Print Screen resolution?

Exactly
More than 300dpi you can not differentiate with your human eyes.
And make the picture big and resize your picture with Photoshop.

You don't do the Print Screen option.

As Piotr said, try saving to PDF, and opening in Photoshop, when it asks you what DPI you want, say 300.

Or, as Archiuser 77 said, save from archicad as a .psd (Photoshop) file.

Avoid JPGs unless you are saving a rendered image. JPGs are for imags with graduated colours.
