You should go by elimination and isolate the component of the system that is responsible for introducing the white stripes.

Try printing from a non-KDE/non-Qt program (e.g. Gimp) and see what happens.

Try finding a pure Qt program (non-KDE) able of printing photos and see what happens (a google search returned only http://www.mtoussaint.de/viewpic.html and it seems old, but you might find some other).

The KDE printing system doesn't modify the files received for printing, so the PS file generated by the app (for preview or printing) has to already contain the white stripes.

Sorry for not being very helpful. As you might understand, your problem might span many components of the system and investigating it wholly would require knowledge, but most especially time, that I don't have right now.

It is a bit puzzling that the number of reports for this issue is so small. I doubt that so few people print photos with KDE. It would be good to have a clear means of reproducing the bug on other people's systems.
