I have a website posted but, when I am printing the pages it will not print the background color. The background colors are there on the screen but, they will not print. Is this a Front Page problem or is this something I can change in Internet Explorer?? This is urgent.. I have to meet with the client TODAY!! What do I do???
 
The default on the browser is normally set to not print the background--for obvious reasons. If you have a black and white printer, have a black page with red text, you won't be able to read it. Not to mention the ink consumption!

To be able to print the background from Internet Explorer, go to Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab. Scroll down until you see Printing and check the box "Print Background Colors and Images." X-)
