Answer 1

Put images in HTML not in CSS

HTML

  <img src="../some_images.jpg" />

not

background-images:url(../some_images.jpg);

Answer 2

By default, Internet Explorer (and some other browsers too, like Opera or Maxthon for instance) prints a webpage without any background images or colors. To print a webpage with all the background images or colors, open Internet Explorer and go to Tools->Internet Options->Advanced. In the Settings window, you will need to scroll down until you find the Printing->Print background colors and images option and check it. After you did that press Apply, then Ok and this should solve the printing problem.

Answer 3

In short, try using a print stylesheet.

Answer 4

In IE this is configurable from the browser. Check this tutorial for the details. Though I suspect you are looking for a css solution. I have not been able to accomplish this in a consistent fashion.

This is probably the best solution I have come across. It involves list-style... rules to attempt to get the job done. good luck.
