Windows 10, TB 115.9.0(x64)

Colored or shaded table cell backgrounds (<td bgcolor="xxxxxx">) are not printed. [Colored text is printed, inside or outside tables.] Before I file a bug report, can someone confirm? - or tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks, John

The print menu has a color option for color vs black&white and also has a tickbox for printing backgrounds. I think if you select color and tick to print backgrounds that the color will work. I tested it and it works for me.
