With the Old Default Image Style extension disabled, I went to my own
<http://www.rossde.com/garden/garden_bloom.html>.  I selected the photo
of the 'Mt. Hood' white daffodil, right-clicked, and selected View Image
in the pull-down context menu.  The image appeared in the center of the
window with a black background.

On the SeaMonkey menu bar, I selected [File > Page Setup].  On the Page
Setup dialogue popup, I made sure the Options: Print Background checkbox
was not checked.

When I printed with color, the image appeared in the upper-left corner
of the page with a white (or no) background.
