When I hit Print Screen all I get is a black screen when paste it in Photoshop.

Is this a bug? Or is there another method I don't know about?

You can't unless you use something like Dxtory or Fraps.

If you use Steam, you can add MWO into it and it will do screenshots.

On windowed mode you can take screenshots.

ALT+ENTER to switch on windowed mode.

For more reallistic, you can disable HUD with R-SHIFT+F11

Personally only prefer Fraps when you can get your hands on the full version.

I may be late to the party but I just found a solution myself. Switch to Full Window (Fullscreen borderless window)

No more black screened screen shots when I hit print screen now

PrtScn saves a screenshot to C:\Program Files (x86)\Piranha Games\MechWarrior Online\USER\ScreenShots. Look in there.

Print Screen key still works for me. F12 does not.

Not sure how to fix your MSI afterburner but if you hit print screen it will save it in a screenshot folder inside your game file. Also I think hitting Alt+enter will switch you to windowed mode and then hitting print screen will allow you to take a screen shot that you can paste to paint or some other program I suspect. Hope that helps some.
