Umm... you can make GIF files have transparent backgrounds (see attachment), but that's not your problem. Besides, the compression of the file already being saved as a JPEG, leaves fragments that interfere with the transparent area...
Your printer won't "print" the white space. If you print your graphic on white decal sheet, you'll get the ink on a white background. If you print your graphic on clear decal sheet, you'll get the ink on a clear background, which is what you want, right?

if the paper is clear then you just delete the pixels you want transparent and it should make it a grey and white checkerboard to tell you its transparent... and if it is just white or some other color when you delete something then hit CTRL+A then CTRL+C then CTRL+N make sure that the background is transparent and hit ok and push CTRL+V...

maybe I amwrong, but I don't think your printer can print white, so no need to work with trasparency !
