Step to reproduce :

place a check box on a sheet

modify background color to blue for example

print preview -> you can see de BgColor 

print -> the back ground color is not printed

export to pdf you can see the background color....

expected behavior : the background color is printed printpreviwed

tested on different versions of libo (3.5 & 3.6) OS Seven/XP

[Reproducible] with parallel installation of Master "LOdev  3.7.0.0.alpha0+   -  ENGLISH UI / German Locale  [Build ID: 747ecb]"  {tinderbox: @16, pull time 2012-10-08 09:46:32} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) with separate User Profile for Master Branch. Color for background area around check box and option box missing in printout (FreePDF), but shown in PDF export.
Reproduced with CALC / WRITER, others not tested.
Works fine for background color IN text box.

In WRITER background color is shown correctly in page preview , but not in print preview.
In CALC and DRAW background color is not shown in page preview, and not in print preview.
Impress not tested.

Already broken with LibO 3.3.3 and also AOOo 3.4.1 (only CALC tested), so problem seems inherited from OOo

Still REPRODUCIBLE withoriginal sample document (and newly created one) and Server Installation of Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64)

Special User Test File for testing

Additional info:
a) In PDF export the background color will be missing if in Menu 
    ˋFile → Export as PDF → Generalˊ checkbox "Create PDF Form" is NOT CHECKED
a1) So result of the export will not be a PDF Form with active checkboxes
a2) With CHECKED "Create PDF Form" the background of the checkbox will appear

b) So "somehow" the background is linked to the active Checkbox Function. A paper Print can not have an active checkbox, and so there can not be a background.

c) Bug or feature, that is the question here.

b1) The relation to Form option in PDF export also does exist in Writer and also
   affects other Controls than checkbox
d1) I see common behavior in Printer dialog of CALC and Writer: 
    in both the preview is without background for Checkbox
d2) I see a strange difference in behavior in 
    ˋFiele → Print Previewˊ between CALC and Writer: 
    Writer: Background shown
    CALC: Background NOT shown
