Thanks..

    There is not an 'ideal' way to do this but a couple options include:

    a) in the page layout you can add a background:

    click that button and then select the image.  You can then scale the cell width and height and select all and add all borders.  You can then take a screenshot and print.

     

    b) also in the layout you can click Print Titles and then select the Header & Footer tab.  Then in the Header or Footer you can select custom and in the custom menu select paste an image.  Again you can adjust the width and height for the grid and in this case you can just print (as long as you turn on the print grid option)
