how to print background image (watermark)

Hi,

I would like to know how I can make a backround image (watermark) that will display on the webpage aswell as on paper after print without setting it up in internet explorer options. If I create a background image with CSS then it doesn't print.

Thank you,

No can do - CSS does not control my printer, I do. Since I have background images turned off, there's no way around it.

If you're in an intranet setting then you can try activex, but I wouldn't recommend it for the internet.

Thanks for your help daveroydunn. It works. Now I just need to know if there is a way to repeat this div without copy and pasting it all the time.

You could use javascript to check the height of the page when it has loaded and then replicate the div down the page.
