I'm using a Chromebook and this keyboard doesn't have a "Print" button, I'm just confused as to what I would use instead of that for taking a screenshot. Thanks!

The default command to take screenshot is actually gnome-screenshot, there's several command-line flags that you can provide in addition to that, such as gnome-screenshot -w for taking a window screenshot. Knowing this you can assign a custom keyboard shortcut via System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts. I would suggest using AltShiftP since I don't recall any other application using it, however you are free to choose among the myriad of other possible combinations.

There are plenty of terminal apps that will take screenshots without the use of any keyboard function (aside from having a keyboard as input)
My personal favorite is screenfetch as it will print out computer info as well
Examples:
usage: screenfetch -s
output:
