fondo retinato
Explanation:
Il termine usato è "fondo retinato", o anche "fondino retinato"

Anche se "tint" di per sé è tinta (da evitare invece sfumatura che è anche usato per "gradient" e tonalità anche usato per "hue"), in questo contesto si usa "retinato" perché una tinta o leggera percentuale di un colore in stampa si ottiene appunto mediante retinatura del colore di partenza.

("Sfondo" è un più generico "background", meno adatto in questo caso specifico.)
