I'd test using new developer (you mentioned the developer was depleted - that could cause problems) and also check the safelight.
I had to change one of mine to a much lower wattage bulb and also replace one of the filters due to age and fading - whilst it looked ok to my eyes, it was obvious my paper didn't love it.
I'd do a safelight test first before continuing to process with the paper - and mix new batch of chemicals for the test too - that way you only have 1 variable at a time to consider.
Hope you figure it out - I hate having these problems too, especially when I'm trying out new products!!
