My screen background color is off-white & this color comes through on the print page. Page Setup/Print Background is set off. How do I fix this? Problem first popped up with version 6, still there with version 8.0.1

File/Page Setup/Format & Options/Options/Print Background (colors & images): Check box set off. This setting does not work as my screen background color still comes through on the print preview & the print page. Is this because the newer Firefox versions have blocked my graphics driver version?
