Cuts showing where laser path starts and stops?

Hi there! I am starting to notice my cuts are slightly off where the laser starts and stops, leaving a ridge on the edge of my materials. I am sanding some of the larger pieces down, but that doesn’t really work for more intricate cuts.

I am wondering if this is due to regular wear or if I need to do some sort of maintenance or cleaning? It’s been about six months with fairly irregular use since its last cleaning.

This can happen if the belt tension is a little off. https://support.glowforge.com/hc/en-us/articles/4401913883547-Print-is-Distorted
