So, you may try to export transparent PDF from Inkscape and print it from Acrobat. Whether this will be any better than printing bitmap I cannot say.
Thanks to everybody I was able to print my files with transparency (and still have a few hours of sleep ;) ). There's still the problem of text without transparency but that'll have to do for now
Currently Inkscape converts text to paths when doing PDF export. It may be that this conversion is buggy in that it loses transparency. You may try to work around that by converting your text to path manually before printing (this will preserve transparency in the resulting path).
Doesn't postscript level 3 handle transparency ?
No.
The day they'll add it will be a good day
I doubt this will ever happen. Postscript is a dead end technology, and it's unlikely it will advance any further. It's being phased out, mostly in favor of PDF.
