red tones being brown

we have a mimaki jv300-160 plus and i'm trying to figure out why on earth is this machine printing my red tones a brownish tint? i ran some pantone samples
in the "cardinal red" type color, and they all came out with a brown tint, no where near the pantone color. our other mimaki was pretty much flawless when it came to colors, but this machine is driving me nuts. any clues as to why this is happening? the head prints out it test pattern fine, no channels missing, etc.
