Beginning with the PC version 4.5x, there is now an option that allows you to
print the background (image or color) along with the web page you are printing.
From the File menu, choose Page Setup. Within the Page Options section, choose
Print Backgrounds.

Customer would like to know why this is not an option in Solaris or Linux
Communicator.

http://www.ufaq.org is a test site that can be used.

Here is an example that vitally depends on properly placed background images in
order to be understood.  This is a well defined behavior according to CSS. 
Omitting the background images violates CSS.

By the way, I tried to send this file as an attachment using Netscape 6.1, but I
kept getting an error message claiming the file was empty.

I tried to submit as attachments the 3 gif images that are needed by my example,
but I keep getting the message "No file was provided, or it was empty.".  So
here is a URL pointing at the example on my web site:

  http://www.cee.hw.ac.uk/~jbw/background-image-example/
Marking this as a duplicate of 96870.  I know that other bug has a higher 
number, but that bug will encapsulate all the background printing issues so the 
bug can be fixed correctly.
