Figures not saving completely

Hi,

I am using matlab 2014 student version on a linux machine and can't seem to save 2d images. The code below gives a simple example. The image plots fine in the figure window but when I try to save it either through the window menu or command line all I get is the axis.

data = rand(1024, 1024) ;
h = figure
pcolor(data)
shading interp
print('/home/davcra/Desktop/fk_filter/FIGURES/SYNTHETIC_TESTS/fk_30-330_before', '-dpng', '-r500')
saveas(h, '/home/davcra/Desktop/fk_filter/FIGURES/SYNTHETIC_TESTS/fk_30-330_before', 'jpg')

my system information is,

uname -a
