I would also suggest doing the lsu power calibration 61-13 then 61-11 as suggested. I have 100s of Aries 2 in the field and fix this stuff all the time. MY rules are...keep the supplies in cycle on the same cycles (dv and drums same counts for color, bw can be diffenent but dv needs to be the same as the drum), update the firmware to latest, and do full calibration each time you are there for service. I rarely have issues since I follow these and inspect the belt and density sensors when I am on site.
My post is a best practice post. Yes registration 50-22 may fix the issue, but...if you have a scratched belt, or a dirty density senor and try that....you may end up with all colors out of whack and not lining up and cannot fix it. Also not calibrating properly can cause you random weird issues that are difficult to troubleshoot and may waste time and parts. Gone are the days of break fix on sharp machines, now you just have to go by the book if you dont want headaches LOL!!
