I Made a piece of art work in Illustrator. When I printed it there was a problem. It seams that the bounding box around my text caused the nearby graphic to be discolored in the bounding box area. I have now converted the text to outlines and am going to see if that fixed it, as the bounding box is smaller.
Can someone tell me why this happens and how to avoid it?

It's an Epson stylus 1400. I had this happen before with Corel and an hp printer. The area of within bounding prints a darker color. It seems ok now that I converted to outlines.

Dana - that really shouldn't happen... I print to an Epson 1800 and Epson 1900 - essentially the same printer as your 1400 - and I don't get that issue.
You're on the mark for solving it though - just convert text to curves as you've done and you should be fine.
How do you like your 1400? The 1800 and 1900 have proved to be awesome printers for me....

I've had a something like that when saving my files as .eps to go into my RIP software(versaworks) for my roland printer. When saving the eps file from illy, in the TRANSPARENCY dialog box set it to high resolution.
