For some reason I keep getting random magenta shifts on my HP L26. Last time I got it I tried replacing both magenta heads as well as doing an alignment test. That didn't fix the issue. Wound up having to save the art in a whole new file, RIP it again and then reprint. Now I just had it happen again on a 80" wrap panel making the whole graphic look blurry. It's just magenta shifting. It would seem it's a file or RIP problem but I don't see how that's possible. Any ideas or suggestions? I've attached some pictures of what it just did.

is it just the black to magenta reg thats off?
It was just the magenta that was off. I tried to do a manual head alignment and lost about 10" of "teeth" on my belt. I ordered a new belt, replaced it and everything was back to good. I knew the belt was not in great shape and should have had one waiting but I guess it was just slipping at times causing my alignment issues.
