Now I'm wondering - the background colour intended to be printed and
the background colour as seen when editing on-screen are not the same
thing. Instructions given earlier in this thread will change the
printed colour (indeed, cheaper to use coloured paper!), but is this
what the OP wanted -- he specifically said "when I editing". Did he
just want a more restful screen background? Options | Appearance if so.
Mike,
I think you hit the nail on the head, I read the original post the same
way. I did not think to follow you path to get the job done. I just
hope the OP is following, if not replying.

If the OP only wants the background blue while editing then I *guess* the
only way is to format>page>background>blue, do the editing and then
*remember* to revert the page background before printing.Or is there some
other way?
Using the Tools > Options > Appearance, as stated above, does not require
that the background be changed when printing or saving. The whole "page"
has the color selected instead of just printable area.
Andy
Yes. Missed that.
