PDF documents printed using evince are showing the transparent shadow as black or white squares

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • While trying to print a PDF file that contains transparent shadows or similar images, it is showing black or white squares on paper. There are solid boxes, but the shaded gradient should be there.
  • The problem does not occur if the PDF document is printed directly from the command line.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
  • evince-3.22.1-7.el7.x86_64.rpm
