Epson F6200 color drift

[Forrest M]

We have always used Epson 7880s converted to use sublimation ink, however we have switched over to Epson F6200s about a year ago. I thought that the color would hold better on the F6200's since they are made for sublimation, but the drift is way worse on them. It seems completely random, the color could hold for a month or two, or only for a week or less. With the 7880s the color would gradually shift over a few months but with the F6200 the color will dramatically change from one day to the next, or start drifting way faster than with the 7880s. Does anyone have any experience with this way too frequent color shift on the F6200's?
