Printing generation lines but no background

I want to print charts without the background stripes but still retain the generation lines. Is there an option for this that I cannot find.

In the diagram, right click and select "Diagram options"
Under the "General" tab there is an option (about half-way down) "Background"
You can adjust this (so all stripes are white?)
This will remove the striped background from the on screen diagram
(You can do similar with the next option Background lines)
Under the Print Tab there is a check box for "Print Background"
Does that do what you want?

Thanks, but if the print tab is used to not print background then the lines go as well
Changing the background colour to white for some reason does not save the colour as white.
Luckily at present I have Adobe Pro so if the charts are saved as pdf I can edit them to remove the stripes but leave the lines

Having set Background to One colour use Options button, pick White and click << Select.
Then OK out and ensure all General tab settings are as shown below:-
