Hey can anybody help me figure out why its doing this cyan color difference? Both blues where exported thru coreldraw as 100% cyan...both are vectors not bitmaps in the image at all... they look identical in job editor and in rip-que...but when i print they are different...Its not a big difference, but it looks like one is about 10 percent darker. any ideas? image below... Thank You

Do you have any effects going on this file? Maybe that one part of the design got caught up in the effect and was rasterized along with it unintentionally?

I am not sure what is causing the color difference but you can spec 100% Cyan using the color replacement feature under the color setting tab of job editor.

Send me the file I would enjoy figuring it out. No problem. My guess is either a stroke that didn't get selected. Or a group transparency possibly those are tricky sometimes.

only effect i got in the file is gradients and i got an engine turn in the file... but the actual cyan is a vector...both cyan shapes are vectors

is one set as a named spot (still being C100%) and one still in process as C 100%?
That's where my mind went

If you could upload the file (or send privately), I'm sure someone could figure out the issue pretty quickly.
Until then, we're stabbing in the dark.

The only difference I can find it the outline of the logo is set to Eofill and the blue stripe is set to Fill. Some info about that. https://printplanet.com/threads/eo-fill.14285/
Now whether that would make a difference in the output value your RIP rasterizes it to I don't know. Can you check the output values in the RIP and replace one of them so they both match?
For what it is worth I ran your PDF through the Cologate RIP and the CMed output values are the same.
What RIP are you using and are you sending the PDF file?

I've never seen this be an issue before now in my career, but it is an option I never even knew was there...
I saw that there was an appearance/attributes difference by selecting both paths at the same time.
In the attributes panel, one of the fills is set as "use non-zero winding fill rule" where the other is set at "use even odd fill rule".
I'm not sure why Onyx recognizes and fills them as slightly different colors though, but people in the links below are experiencing somewhat similar issues with the same feature.

Why does Compounding in Illustrator not behave the same for all paths?

Did you send this problem file as an EPS file to Onyx?

Well check the color values in Color Replacement.

Just ripped this in our Onyx and it's claiming the exact same CMYK values for both blues.
I'll see if I can do a test print tomorrow and see what happens.
