With default settings, when you print a Microsoft Office Word document, the background color is not printed. Most users do not notice this until they want to print a different background color than the default color.

With default settings, the Microsoft Office Word program ignores the background color when you print the document. This significantly saves the printing cost and print color as there is no point in printing the white background color on a white paper!

On rare occasions, however, you might want to print the background color of a document. Luckily, the Office Word program supports printing the background color for ages now. It is just that it’s not turned on by default to save the print color.
