I get a pleasant result (at least in preview from Firefow) with
img {max-width: 17cm; max-height: 24cm; background: white ;color:#000; }

inside a <link rel="stylesheet" href="../style/print.css"
type="text/css" media="print" />

Beware of transparent images, background is a good idea!


You might want to take care of page-break after title:
h1 {  page-break-after:avoid}
h2 {  page-break-after:avoid}
h3 {  page-break-after:avoid}
h4 {  page-break-after:avoid}
/* up to your usual depth */

At least it try to give some clue to the paging engine.

As well as printing the actual URL of link (because on paper, a printed
visual of link is useless):

a:link:after, a:visited:after{ content: " (" attr(href) ") ";
font-size: 90% }
