Can PowerPoint print B/W text?

Here is my dillema-I have a PowerPoint presentation with a dark green, magenta and black backgound. There is white type (done within Powerpoint) on most of the slides. When it is printed to a black and white printer, all of the type comes out black on the dark background. Does anybody know if there is a fix to this problem (other than buying Keynote)? I didn't see anything in the print window or the preferences. Thanks for any help anyone can give!

 

I have that checked when I print. It still prints the type black on the black background and also shows it that way in the small print preview window. This is really confusing me.

 

I just wanted to bump this up. Is there anybody out there who has had this problem? Thanks.
