Not sure if somebody mentioned it already, but have you played with
other buffers than the recommended sodium phosphate from the manual ?

Most lazy people use Tris because there's a 1 M stock solution - but you
can try also other buffers as long as you stay in a pH range >pH6 Of course you still need imidazole for the elution but the buffer might
bring some surprises, one of them can be a better initial purity after
the first capture step, another one might stabilize your protein.
