How do I use the Home, End, Pause/Break, and Print Screen keys on the FREEWOLF K100 keyboard?

The FREEWOLF K100 is a 99-key compact keyboard, which means many standard functions are mapped as secondary layers to save space. To access these keys, you typically need to use the FN (Function) key in combination with the side-printed legends on the keycaps.Based on standard 99-key layouts and the side-printed design of the K100, please check the following:Home / End: Look at the navigation cluster (usually near the top right or on the number pad). These are often mapped to FN + [ and FN + ] or found on the number pad keys when Num Lock is off.Print Screen (PRTSC): This is commonly mapped to FN + P or a dedicated key in the top row labeled with side-printing.Pause / Break: This is typically mapped to FN + B or FN + P.Because the K100 features side-printed legends, look at the front-facing side of the keycaps (the side facing you, rather than the top). If you see "HOME," "END," or "PRTSC" printed on the side of a key, press and hold the FN key while pressing that specific key to trigger the function.If your specific unit does not have these labels, you may need to toggle the Num Lock state to use the secondary functions printed on the number pad (7 for Home, 1 for End).
