Screenshot in Java (robot, code works, but not with an external full-screen application)

I use the following code to take a screenshot:

        Robot robot = new Robot();
        BufferedImage image = robot.createScreenCapture(screenRectangle);
        ImageIO.write(image,"png", file);

This code works well. When the program starts, screenshots on the desktop are taken.

However, when I try to start the first game, the application is in full screen , it does not work correctly. It displays either a black screen or the same “original” snapshot.

Is this problem known and how to fix it?

Second question: Is it possible to imitate some kind of “print screen” that we can use on the keyboard to solve this problem? Because I can use the print screen key when the application starts in full screen and when I insert, I got my screen.
(Like this, but in java: Copy the contents of a screen or active window ?)

Thank you in advance for your help.

EDIT : Andrew Thompson was kind to offer me the following code, which would be a good first step to solve this problem:

import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.datatransfer.Clipboard;
import java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

public class ScreenshotUsingPrintScreen {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    int i = KeyEvent.VK_PRINTSCREEN;
    Clipboard cb = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
    DataFlavor[] flavors = cb.getAvailableDataFlavors();
    System.out.println("Before: ");
    for (DataFlavor flavor : flavors) {
        System.out.println(flavor);
    }

    // get the screenshot
    Robot robot = new Robot();
    robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PRINTSCREEN);
    robot.delay(40);
    robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PRINTSCREEN);
    robot.delay(40);

    cb = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
    flavors = cb.getAvailableDataFlavors();
    System.out.println("After: ");
    for (DataFlavor flavor : flavors) {
        System.out.println(flavor);
    }
}

}

It compiles well, but despite this, I get the following error when it starts.
