If you want to print with a color background then you would want to paint
the area and use a _srcOr to put the text on the page.

I do this all the time.

call paintrect(theRect)// paint the area of the page you want
call textmode(_srcOr)
print %(h,v) theString$ or call drawstring(theString$)

print and drawstring act the same way.
If I CLS with a color, then both will not change the background color.
I think there is no easy way to print some thing in color background.

Thanks!
