Think this is solved.  On the printer settings under calibration you can set when to calibrate, it was set to 15 minutes after turning the printer on, so this made it appear to be randomly starting.  Changed it to calibrate when the printer is turned on, not 15 minutes after turning on.

In the embedded web server of the printer check under print quality. You may be able to change the frequency but on most color units you cannot turn it off as the printer needs to periodically check the alignment of the cartridges to ensure print quality.
