Usually printing out colored backgrounds is the last thing you want to do. It uses up a lot of ink, just like printing out photos does. But sometimes you need to print something with a lot of color or a background image, like a booklet for example. In this case you have two options: Go to an office print store, or use your work/home printer for the job. In either case, you’ll probably still end up printing it with Microsoft Office, and here is how to enable image and background printing with Word 2013.
Open Word 2013 and click the File menu.
From the backstage view click the Options button.
In Options, select the Display tab and then check the box titled Print Background Colors and Images. Click OK to save changes and exit.
Now when you print, background colors or background images will now show up. As mentioned above, this can use up a lot of ink. You may want to keep this feature disabled until you are ready to print your final copies.
Thanks!
I tried, the picture look just fine in the print layout.
However, when i enter the print preview, the picture scaled and look too big. in the other hand, when i save the document as pdf format, the background picture turned into very smaller size and becomes repeated pictures as background.
