okay for "a", it must be a printer driver problem. The hex colors render fine in the browser, but the headers print purple and links are flashy green.

I would rather use **BOLD** instead of the H3/H4 than modifying the /usr/share/zim/templates/html/Print.html. I sometimes print man pages using the command man -t (or --troff) command > ~/command.pdf. Couldn't Zim use a similar command to print to PS or PDF in a WYSIWYG manner?

Relying on the browser printing functionality has some downsides:
I use "minium font size" in the browser pref. and large font (DejaVu Sans) for onscreen display. I have to disable the setting and change font/font size anytime I want to print.
The page header/footer are not well positioned on the pages. If I manually change the page margins from the browser page setup. it somewhat conflicts with the CSS margin and the page are truncated when they print.
