Yes, I'm seeing the same behavior. The background color of the figure
does not seem to be respected in printed plots. I don't know whether
this is the expected behavior in Matlab or not.

Another example:

  plot (0:10, 0:10);
  set (gcf, "color", 0.5 * ones (1, 3));
  set (gca, "color", "none");
  print test.png;
