The clipboard lives on the client operating system; unless the user pastes the image into an editor, saves it and uploads it using a form, there's no way you can get that data with HTML and the server side alone.

You can't grab a printscreen of a client by with PHP. PHP is a server side technology and cannot access the client. You'd have to use some kind of client side tech like flash, js or java applet. You might want to retag your question if those are permissible.
