Wow! Thanks for the reply. It is interesting the kind of things when using
Context or for that matter any typesetting system. I thought I chose the
letter size for my layout and I am printing it on a letter size paper. Also,
the PDF shows green everywhere. Hence, getting the color on whole page
should be easy. From your responses, it seems it is not possible because of
the way printers are designed.
