How do I get a watermark in the background to print on a document

I am not an experienced user of publisher. I have a watermark in the
background of a page but I can't get it to show up when I'm ready to print.

Is the watermark on the Master page? Do you have view, ignore Master page checked?

If you have chosen one of the PaperDirect publications, then Publisher will
show you the background when you are editing the publication, but it will
not print, as these publications are intended to be printed on PaperDirect
paper (which has the background pre-printed)
