Did you tried Print Screen key in your keyboard?
go to the page you want srceenshot of, press Print Screen (Prt Sc), open MS paint and paste it there.
or there is an article about taking screenshots in MUO by Tina,

Check out Awesome Screenshot in the Chrome store. Install the extension and you can capture the whole page, a portion, and even notate.

Just use Print Screen, like Suman said. This is a very useful key but it’s underrated. You don’t have to install anything too. Make sure your Chrome browser is the active window, then press ALT+Prt Sc, then open MS Paint then press CTRL+V. Save it in the picture file type (jpeg, png, etc.) you like by choosing it in the “Save as” option. If you want a zoom version, press CTRL+mouse wheel up in chrome then repeat the steps I told you above.

Best way will be without a 3rd party software.
You just need basic MS Paint skills.

1, Prt Sc SysRq to capture current frame.
2. Paste in MS Paint
3. Select > Select All, and then move the image according to the cropping you want to do. Half, full, quarter whatever screen you wish, you get it :D

If you have the cash, Snagit is great for taking lots of screenshots.

What you want is a Chrome Extension that does screenshot. There are plenty of them available, and most if not all allow you to grab the entire page or a part of it. For example, “Screen Capture (by Google)”, “Pixlr Grabber” and “Awesome Screenshot” all have these options.
