Default Small black spots on my cattleya orchid

Hello there again. I have another question (thanks ray for anwser my water quality problem). I just bought a Cattleya Netrasiri Beauty on ebay and when I took out of the bow earlier today I noticed that it had little black spots on ONE of the leaves. Kind of like a banana. Is this a problem or is it normal for some cattleyas to have that. I know that it's normal on certain orchids! Should I be worried.

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

Cattleyas, for the most part, do not exhibit such things readily.

If it is an older leaf, i would much worry about it.

Default Black Spot on Cattleya

Here are pictures of my Cattleya leaf with spots. I need help as well. I don't know what caused the black spots. Or what to do to stop them from spreading. Thank you for you help.
