SYMPTOMS

When you print a data access page that has a theme, a color background, or a background image, these backgrounds do not appear on the printed page.

RESOLUTION

  1. Open Internet Explorer.
  2. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
  3. On the Advanced tab, click to select the Print Background Colors and Images check box.
