how do I print without the background?

[dkozari]

My boss wants users to be able to log into their website and be able to print off the information there. However the site has a very black background and when you press the print button on the browser it comes out as a black sheet of paper.

I was thinking that I could stick a print button on the pages that people would be interested in printing. I am aware of using window.print(), but is there some kind of javascript that will let me print WITHOUT the background image?

Thanks in advance.

Yep, with CSS you can: (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/media.html)

@media print {
background-color: white;
}

I think this should do the trick:
