      No. But you could create one easily using the transform-effect

      I know you can manually create a grid but I was hoping for something even easier. Like "print background grid", it seems like this would be an obvious feature that would come in handy, at least for me.

        There is no print/output option to print the grid. Easiest way to print existing grid is:

        1. Set your view to 100%
        2. Hide all layers
        3. Shift command 4 (MAC) to take a screenshot (crop carefully on your page)
        4. place that screenshot on a top layer in your docuement and set blending mode to multiply
