color difference

Hi,

I print these two files that should have identical properties, but the result is different. The shades are not equal. Can you help me, what is the difference between these 2 files ?

How are you sending them to print? As EPS? How do they get printed?

So you sent them to the printer together? Did you print them or someone else?

 

EPS doesn't contain a color profile, so the printer lacks crucial information. Did you discuss the matter with them?

Hello,

 

Files is saved from AI - as EPS - sent to printer. RIP detects the files differently (as it can be seen on the screen before printing). But why ?? , as long as the color formula is the same, the files are both EPS. Even if it is not correct, the result must be EQUAL.

I had a look at your files and cannot detect the difference.

I noticed transparency with the Flattener Preview (the white strokes). This is the Illustrator part, eps cannot contain transparency. 

So depending on who is printing what; from Illustrator you print the .ai part with transparency and color profile, from whatever opens the .eps without transparency and without color profile, you may get a different result.
