CSS @media print issues with background-color;

Got it:

CSS:

box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 1000px gold;

Works for all boxes - including table cells !!!

• (If the PDF-printer output file is to be believed..?)
• Only tested in Chrome + Firefox on Ubuntu...

To enable background printing in Chrome:

body {
  -webkit-print-color-adjust: exact !important;
}

IF a user has "Print Background colours and images" turned off in their print settings, no CSS will override that, so always account for that. This is a default setting.

Once that is set so it will print background colours and images, what you have there will work.

It is found in different spots. In IE9beta it's found in Print->Page Options under Paper options

In FireFox it's in Page Setup -> [Format & Options] Tab under Options.
