Problems printing graphics with transparent backgrounds

I have an application that is able to display graphics and print them - I just use compositeToPoint: operation:NSCompositeSourceOver to put my image on a view. I have been testing using PSD images which are recognized by OS X, and display correctly in the application, and display correctly in Preview, but when I print them (HP DeskJet 810C - if it matters), they come out with all the transparent areas black.

I thought I might be somehow screwing things up in my app, so I tried it in Sketch and got the same results. To reproduce, run Sketch, drag on a PSD image with some transparency, then print it.

I haven't had a chance to check with other graphic formats which have transparent backgrounds yet.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there a fix or workaround?

Thanks

Gideon.
