Buried in the css files are various @media print configurations which prevent color printing. They can be edited by hand if one has access to the installation directories, but there should be a way to have color printing be done without this type of editing.
@aroberge Thanks for the suggestion. Personally, I never noticed that printing defaults to B&W whether from the Print Preview menu option or the browser print menu (at least on Firefox).
@carreau @ellisonbg Is there a setting that can be easily changed to enable color printing? If so, it would seem reasonable to document here and the user docs.
Hmm, I don't think we set anything that makes it BW. We will have to look
into this.

I've installed Jupyter + IPython using the Anaconda Python distribution. In my system, the relevant css file is (if I am not mistaken):
Anaconda3/pkgs/notebook-4.06-py34_0/Lib/site-packages/notebook/static/style/style.min.css
Edit: from memory, there were two places where I removed code from the css file to print everything in color. The first place was near the @media print declaration; the second was a setting for html tables if I recall correctly.
This is a bootstrap thing that include a print.less with !important.
It's not easy to get rid of, but we can try.
