That's probably more of a question for the screen-user list ..?

Try CTRL+A then press the escape key or "[" .. 

If you are using the defaults, this puts you in copy/scroll mode and you
should be able to use PgUp /PgDown for scrolling .. 

Press the escape key when you're done to get out of this mode and return
to where you were.

Look for "scrollback" in the gnu/screen manual for ways to change the
default buffer size - 100 lines in the version I'm running.

HTH.
