Quinto,

It sounds like a driver issue. Did you try printing on another printer,
even a black and white set to grayscale? Check the driver properties.

God Bless,

I had the same problem. I played around with properties and tried to find a
solution for the longest time, but couldn't fix it. I finally found a
work-around to the problem by placing a white rectangle of the same size as
the picture object behind the picture object. The background of my pictures
is white, so I get the end-result I wanted.

As Mark said, this kind of thing is almost always a driver issue. Go to the
printer manufacturer's website and download the latest version. But keep in
mind, I've seen a number of reports where the problem was that the driver had
been updated and the **newest** version caused the problem. Rolling back to
the previous version of the driver actually fixed the problem.
