Your problem is process you need to eliminate and there are so many causes to considered. 1.your solder paste 2.your PCB pads 3.your component 4.your profile 5.your printer 6.your placement. you need to isolate all these one of this is your problem.

If the solder had formed an intermetallic then it couldn't have pulled off completely like it did, it's obvious that the boards have a problem with their finish.

I have seen similar things like this before with Solder Resist redepositig back on the pads, this is a clear residue very hard to see. Solder resist will obviously resist solder adhering to it. If you rework the boards then the heat of the iron will

The need to prebake boards to remove moisture from the board [to prevent voiding] prior to wave soldering is driven by the thickness of through hole plating. * 1 thou [25um] or greater requires no prebaking * LT 1 thou [25um] requires prebaking
