Re: Printing discrepancy - photo on a plain background has a
"box" around it

Are they both in the same color space (CMYK or RGB). If they are not, they 
may print differently.

Hi

I'm using an Epson Stylus Photo R800 with CorelDraw 11.

I'm having trouble with one particular image.

On screen it looks perfect and as expected but when printing there is a
slight problem.

I'm creating a brochure which has a plain background with a 10% black fill.
On top of that I have imported a photo. Originally the photo had a white
background but I changed that to 10% black to match.

On screen they blend perfectly and there is no discernable edge on the
imported photo.

But when I print the photo has a darker grey background so there is an
obvious square surrounding the photo.

So is this a problem with CorelDraw or the printer driver for the Epson?

Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

Ian
