-webkit-print-color-adjust

Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.

The -webkit-print-color-adjust property is a non-standard CSS extension that can be used to force printing of background colors and images in browsers based on the WebKit engine.

Syntax

-webkit-print-color-adjust: economy | exact

Values

economy: Normal behavior. Background colors and images are only printed if the user explicitly allows it in their browser's print settings dialog.
exact: Background colors and images of the element to which this rule is applied are always printed, user's print settings are overridden.

Inheritance

This property is inherited.

[1] Chrome does not print backgrounds of the <body> element. If this property is set to exact for the body element, it will apply only to its descendants.

When background images are clipped (for example, when using background-image sprites), due to Chromium bug 131054, they will appear distorted when printed from the Chrome browser with -webkit-print-color-adjust: exact. Solid backgrounds and background images that are not clipped (i.e. have lower width and height than the element to which they are applied) are printed correctly.

[2] Safari does not print backgrounds of the <body> element. If this property is set to exact for the body element, it will apply only to its descendants.
