If I press the prt scrn key on keyboard, a new browser window (chromium) opens with the address pointing to http://ksnapshot/ Anyone is experience the same issue?

I'm on Kubuntu 17.10, Plasma Desktop 5.12.2

P.S.: note that ksnapshot has been replaced by kde-spectacle since December 2015.

As per this Q&A: The print screen key does not open the screen shot tool in Kubuntu 16.10

Follow these steps:

Kubuntu 16.10 replaces the old screen shot tool KSnapshot with Spectacle but does not change the keyboard setting accordingly. Under System Settings -> Shortcuts -> Custom Shortcuts the folder "Screenshots" must be developed to show an entry "Start Screenshot Tool". The trigger for this entry must be set to be the print screen key. A dialog will prompt warning that the key is already assigned; it is assigned to KSnapshot; therefore ignore the warning.
