Obviously the blood on Fight #31 was supposed to be red, not orange. So, even if different printers were used, the one printing red used the correct color separations. In my opinion, these should be more valuable and coveted than the "orange blood" versions. Tri-Color Brian's copy is far more visually striking than the Promise version.

Do we know that Fiction House used different printers for the same book? 

It was unusual for a comic publisher to use more than one printer for a particular issue.  The profit margins are so slim that the setup costs would make this uneconomical.

When you have different printers, there will be small but noticeable differences in the ink, paper, colors etc. I have not noticed such differences among the FH copies I have seen, so my assumption is that, for any particular book, only one printer was used.
