  When printing a Dokuwiki page that contains media icons, the icons do not print.  Instead gaps are left where the icons ought to be.
  
  This has been verified in the following combinations of browser/operating system:
  
  (1) Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP
  (2) Firefox 3 on Windows XP
  (3) Firefox 3.5 on Linux (Ubuntu)
  
  In all the above cases, I had the relevant "print background images and colors" option set.
  
  Screenshots of the Dokuwiki homepage in my browser and as print preview are attached (from Firefox 3.5/Linux).

  OK, I found out why this is doing it.
  
  In /lib/tpl/default/print.css comment out or delete line 21:
  background: none !important;
  
  It might be a good idea to transfer this into the final release - I can't really see a reason to not print them (most browsers don't print them by default anyway, so there's no particular reason to exclude them from the template too).

  Non-printing of the icons is intended - they are thery to show what a link points to before clicking it, since you can't click on a printout they make no sense.
  
  However the padding should be removed.

  Padding for not displayed icons was removed in print stylesheet.
