Webpage printing without background colours

[Hash]

Hello

I use ie6 sp2.

In order to save ink ( colour or black ) how can I enable just the printing
of text and images of an internet webpage and not print the background
colours of the webpage.

Sometimes webpages have multitude of colours for their background. For me
it would be a waste of ink when I only need to see the text and images. I'd
appreciate a solution. Thank you.

Thank you Don. It is unchecked so webpage is sorted. I use xp sp2 home
edition.

If I open C:\ or F:\ (dvd rom0 or G:\ (dvd rw) drives on the left is a blue
column with several headings like System Tasks, File and Folder Tasks, Other
Places and Details.

The column has blue background. When printing this page I am wasting quite
a bit of blue colour. How can I print this page without background colour ?
I'll appreciate your reply. Thank you.

Hi,
I think that you will have to change the display for Windows Explorer to a
white background.

Or, if the goal is simply to print a list of files in a folder, see:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/PrintDirectory.htm or use one of the (many) free
utilities such as Directory Printer from
http://www.karenware.com/powertools/powertools.asp or Directory Lister from
http://freeware.prv.pl/
