This is a bug in Office printing. Microsoft has fixed this for Office 2007 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948954), but not sure if they have anything yet for earlier versions. You might want to try Microsoft support/forum or paste the object in Word differently (try various paste special options).

Sorry but they do have office 2007 and it does the same thing black box even after the hotfix...PDF maker error comes up since the hotfix.

Would it be possible for you to post a sample document demonstrating the problem?
