In general, printing backgrounds is a browser feature, and users should mark this option manually in the print dialog:

But… There’s a really cool hack -

.box-with-background { 
 -webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; // For Chrome & Safari
  color-adjust: exact; // For Firefox
}

This implements two little-known css properties -

• -webkit-print-color-adjust
• color-adjust

Notice this does not work in IE or Edge.
