    Different background colour for receipt page (printer Friendly)

    Hi, can anyone advise?

    I have set my store to have a black background to match my ebay store. Now I have my credit card merchant services working in test mode I have found that the receipt (which I have only just noticed) is not printer friendly as it is mostly black when printed. How can I change the background colour just on that page?

    Thanks, Colin

    As you will also need a printer friendly store (people may wish to print out a product page) you are best setting up a new stylesheet for print media .. here you can set the background to white for when any page is printed not just the receipt

      Thanks for your reply. I take the point.
      I am not sure how to do this, so far I am using a modified theme layout. Do you know of a site that is doing this so I can have a look?
      Thanks again.

        In the outer layout add the following to the <head> section ... just beneath the link to the actinic.css

        <link rel="stylesheet" type"text/css" href="print.css" media="print">

        Create a new stylesheet called "print.css" in the root of the site folder with the background-color set accordingly (you may like to also change the margins etc to fit onto a standard A4 printer).. add the the file to the additional files list and it will get uploaded with the rest of the files via Actinic.

        There are many tutorials on the internet in formatting for printed media .. a list apart would be a good place to start.
