Hi Allen,
We could configure print color through Microsoft Edge\Print\More Settings\Output options\Color.

However, the print settings of Edge is not much abundant, it is not available to configure background in printing. Please feedback your desire to Microsoft through build-in application FeedBack hub and help Microsoft to improve it's using experience.
I hope it will released in the next version.
Bests,
