Print background colors/styles does not work in latest release (47.0.1)

more options

With the latest version of Mozilla (47.0.01), my background colors/styles no longer print?

I've selected the option to print background colors/styles, as I have done before, but it does not do anything, no colors print on the page?

When will this be corrected? I've tried everything, changing settings (for theme type, for background color of empty pages/tabs, changed background colors, added correct DOCTYPE to page, nothing seems to work)?

Does anyone else have this problem?

TIA, -Brett

Hi Brett, are there particular sites where you notice this problem or does it affect all sites? If it's a particular site, often there is a print-optimized style sheet that modifies the layout and colors. These are annoying when they unstyle everything. However, diagnosing such issues works best if you can supply the relevant URLs.
