Are there known communication issues with publisher and some printers?
Answer Check to see if you have multiple copies of the image on your publisher document. Just select it and hit delete and see if there are ones behind it. You can always hit “undo” to bring back the picture. I suspect that may be the problem and that you are seeing it with a color print out more than a B&W one. Otherwise, you may want to check your printer settings within publisher to ensure you are not set to print multiple copies per page.
