Hello

I am using Word 2013
I have a document where I added a gradient background, but when I want to print it, the background does not print normally: it prints in lots of small boxes instead of printing large on the entire page

I would like to know why and how to fix this problem
THANK YOU

    You have chosen the wrong background image for the page, and you have enlarged it too much.

      It’s not an image!
      I went to Creation => Page Color => Pattern and Texture => Gradient.
      I can't resize anything.

    In the printer settings, you may have chosen draft, fast, or standard quality. Try using high quality.

      It doesn't work
      The more I increase the quality, the more boxes there are, but even at minimum quality, there are some.

    Hello

    At the risk of repeating myself, background colors are not meant for printing, but only for display (web or other).
    Moreover, before, they could not be printed.

    To have a correct background color in printing, you need to go through Watermark and put an image.
