Print Screen for Duel Monitors

Does anybody know how, or if it's even possible, to use "print screen" to
capture the image of one moniter when using extended monitors? When I use
print screen it captures the image of both monitors together and I only want
it to copy the main one.

Dual monitors, in this case, are showing an extended desktop, therefore
print screen captures this desktop.
Copy the output to your image editing app, then edit out what you dont want.

Use Alt + Print Screen, using this option only captures the active window.
