Are you using the LP-NV2 plates from Fuji?

Yep, start looking on press. A word of advice ... when the pressman says it's prepress's fault, usually you have a lazy pressman.

My first thought when I read of your issue was a packing on press. Just seems odd that only 1 out of the 4 colors aren't fitting. It's just too easy for a pressman to say it's preps fault.

I am not saying you don't have a problem with the CTP. But at least take the time to rule out a possible packing issue on press.

Have them hang a magenta plate on the cyan unit and cyan on magenta... If the magenta plate is short and the cyan plate is not, it is a press problem
