I'm testing in Firefox. In the Print Preview Page Setup dialog I had
'Print Background (colors & images)' UNchecked (as usual). Checking
this option showed both the background color AND the list numbers in
the same colours as on screen. Background (dark red), text and
numbers (white).

In my Firefox, with rather vanilla settings, the Print Preview shows black on white, except the heading, which is green. The numbers are there. So I wonder whether the problem is in your browser.

I'm going to try setting print colours even more specifically for
list-items, and see what happens.

As a rule, it's probably best to set color: black and background: white for all elements in printing, in the case of an information page (as opposite to something that people might really want to print in colors).

It's generally considered kind of rude to force color printing on people, since many color printers (ahem, Lexmark) are very costly per page of color.
