You can use below Powershell.

$spweb = get-spweb -identity "http://yourdomain/yourweb"
# Use the "pretty name" of your library below
$list = $spweb.lists["Your Library"]
$listItems = $list.Items
# For each item
foreach ($listItem in $listItems)
{ 
   $DocumentTitle = $listItem.Name
   write-host "FileTitle -> $DocumentTitle"   
}

#Clean up
$spWeb.Dispose()

Get-SPWeb http://sharepoint/sites/xyz|
   Select -ExpandProperty Lists |
   Where { $_.Title -eq "Shared Documents" } |
   Select -ExpandProperty Fields | Select Title, InternalName

           #Filter Doc Libs, Eliminate Hidden ones
            if(($List.BaseType -eq "DocumentLibrary") -and ($List.Hidden -eq $false) )
               { 
                GetFiles($List.RootFolder)

        }
       }

This is the script that will print the names of all items in a library.

$web = Get-SPWeb <web address>
$list = $web.Lists["<document library/list name>"]
$items = $list.Items
foreach($i in $items){
   Write-Host $i.Name
}
