Unsolvable Word Problem???????

I am trying to setup a background color to print with my document(s) I am selecting in MS Word - Format , Background , Fill effects , one color(any Color), from center, . When I do a print preview the background shows up exactly like I want it to, but when I actually print the document, the back ground fill effect come out Tiled. prints tiled 6 x 11 images instead of 1 image on the whole page.
How do I force word to Print the page as it is previewed and not have the fill effects Tiled.
I am trying to do this without creating a textbox or creating a header or importing a picture.
I would also be curious to know which OLE Object that the fill effect imaging is calling from.
I have tested this on many differnet printers, creating PDF's or printing to XPS.

Thanks in Advance.
