[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] fancy HTML/CSS receipt lost in translation

[Holly Brennan]

I created this blurb for our receipts (below), since plugging in the actual Banned Books Week image wasn't printing very well.

It looks great on preview, but when it prints the table has no black background and the text is black. Examples of Preview and output below.

I've never had something print differently than it appears in Preview. Am I just trying to do the impossible? Or perhaps it's my receipt printer? Very strange that not only is the background not printing black but the text is also not printing as white... I can almost understand one or the other, but not both.

Thanks for your insight!
