I'd like to print out my org file in expanded mode in color. How do I do
that?

Thanks.

I suggest M-x htmlize-buffer RET then printing from your web browser.

I can't find  htmlize-buffer in my org 8.2.5g. Is this recently been
introduced?

Also, I have created a HTML file using htmlfontify-buffer but can't seem to
open this file using Firefox or Safari (it shows blank). The file, however,
opens file in Lynx.

Thanks.

C-h f htmlize-buffer RET gives

,----
| htmlize-buffer is an interactive Lisp function in `htmlize.el'.
| 
| (htmlize-buffer &optional BUFFER)
| 
| Convert BUFFER to HTML, preserving colors and decorations.
| 
| The generated HTML is available in a new buffer, which is returned.
| When invoked interactively, the new buffer is selected in the current
| window.  The title of the generated document will be set to the buffer's
| file name or, if that's not available, to the buffer's name.
| 
| Note that htmlize doesn't fontify your buffers, it only uses the
| decorations that are already present.  If you don't set up font-lock or
| something else to fontify your buffers, the resulting HTML will be
| plain.  Likewise, if you don't like the choice of colors, fix the mode
| that created them, or simply alter the faces it uses.

M-x locate-library htmlize.el RET gives (in my case)

,----
| Library is file ~/elisp/org-mode/contrib/lisp/htmlize.el

Maybe you need to add the org-mode/contrib/lisp directory to your load-path?
