Barbara,
I don't have that stainer but have had that problem from time to time. If you are using recycled alcohol in your last alcohol station or if your alcohol is not really at 100% that may be the problem.

Subject: [Histonet] Varistain Gemini Auto Stainer
Hi everyone:
We have a Varistain Gemini ES autostainer. We are having variability in
the stain quality of the slides. Some slides are stained properly while
others are stained lighter. This is sometimes on the same slide (top
section stained good; bottom section not good); sometimes some slides in
the rack will stain okay and others in the same rack will not. Does
anyone have this stainer and has experienced this problem?
Thank you,
Barbara
