I agree that insufficient fixing might be the problem, but that I am still
puzzled by the white borders, these needed the greatest amount of fixing, but
these are still white..

I've seen exactly the same thing and as with you, only with prints that I have
at work and only RC papers (the only RC I
used and took to work was Ilford MGIV). These are all older prints before I
permanently switched to to bath
fixing for all my prints.
Insufficient fixing is still the most likely explanation, but I am not
convinced that it is the only one.
