Shadow print problem

When I print a PowerPoint 2007 slide with a nice, fuzzy drop shadow, it
extends several pixels of a half-transparent white "ghost" beyond the shadow.
If the image is on a white background, this doesn't matter, as you can't see
the ghost. But if the shadowed image is on top of another image, the ghost is
unacceptably visible.

Help?

There is a "High quality" option in the print dialog. Make sure it is
checked.

Is your printer driver PostScript-based? PS has problems with transparency.
Try another printer or check on the manufacturer's website whether a newer
driver is available.
