Versaworks 4.8 printing "white" when I don't have white ink

I have a VS-640 running Versaworks 4.8 and I had to reinstall recently and lost all of my settings. I know there was some setting I changed to prevent white from trying to print but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. Basically I want to be able to send a file with a white background and have 0 color output anywhere there is white. Right now it is printing like a very light hazy blue color (photo attached) anywhere there is white in my file.

I sell stickers and sticker accessories.
A white background will not print as white, you have to use a named spot color for the VS-640 and VersaWorks to print white.
Maybe your background is not 0% CMYK?
We have printed artwork supplied by the client in the past, and they complained that the background was not white, well the file may have looked white on screen, it was not 100% white, so it had a slight tint when printed. We assumed they wanted it this way as it was the way the art was supplied.
