Perhaps I've missed something obvious ?

Can't see any colors defined for print in your styles, and the validator reports one color-value as being non-valid.
Check up on, and declare, colors and backgrounds for each media first.

Thanks, Georg,

I've corrected that color-value. I do have colors and backgrounds declared in my main CSS file, which is set to 'media="all"'. Should that not be sufficient ?

I'm testing in Firefox. In the Print Preview Page Setup dialog I had 'Print Background (colors & images)' UNchecked (as usual). Checking this option showed both the background color AND the list numbers in the same colours as on screen. Background (dark red), text and numbers (white).

With the 'Print Background' option UNchecked, the background becomes white (of course). The text in the list items reverses to black, apparently of its own accord (why ?), but the item numbers remain white, so they become invisible. By specifically setting a print colour for the latter (and the list-item text; ol {color: #000;}) I can get them to display. BUT then if I CHECK the 'Print background' option, I get the red background with black text. Seems I can't win.

I'm going to try setting print colours even more specifically for list-items, and see what happens.

Regards, Tim
