    I'm assuming you mean Office 2007. If so, here are the instructions:

    1. Click the Microsoft Office Button (the one at the top left of the Word window), and then click Word Options.

    2. On the Display menu, click to select the Print background colors and images check box under Printing Options, and then click OK.

    If you're using an older version of word, detailed instructions can be found here:

    Even better, you could buy coloured paper which would be a bit cheaper and better quality overall :)
