File not printing any like it should. Not CC issue.

This is really weird and in many years of printing I have never seen this. I have a file that has always printed fine but today when I print it looks like it is not printing certain layers of the file. It previews fine in the file and even in production manager but what comes out it nothing like what it shows. Tried restarting the program with no luck. I haven't changed this file since the last time I printed it. Below shows how it should print on the left while the right is how it is printing. Any suggestions?

It has been saved as a flexi file for years. I haven't modified the file so it should print the same as it always has. Haven't tried exporting it as a different file type.

Possile that it was saved in an old flexi and a new update has changed. Rendering itents all the same as before?

One other possibility. If it was using a Flexi saved gradient and someone used that saved gradient in some other design or changed the gradient and saved the modified gradient with the same name then every other files that used that specific gradient will be changed. To me it does look like one of the middle points on the gradient had its position changed. Since each segment of the letter used the same gradient it changes on all of them.

This is the only thing I can think of since I haven't modified the file. Since I have Cloud maybe the latest update renders gradients different. I know I have had major issues with contour cutting legacy files with Cloud that support can't seem to figure out.

I imported the original .eps file and it prints fine now. So the problem isn't with the .eps file but how Flexi saved it.

Either how it saved it or how it has reopened it. I have this problem. I like dashed trim lines on my files. That's the way I save them. But everytime I open a file I just saved. All the dotted lines turn to solid strokes. No idea why, just one of those stupid things. My guess is they changed something on the software side
