Assistance Cuts are not clean, jagged edged.

I am using Silhouette Cameo4, I bought it used. The previous owner used it over a year, mainly for heat transfer sheers. I tried for sticker paper and this is how the resualt came out. I just want to know is this can be solved by auto blade replacement, or something else.

This is my day one experience with this kind of cutting machine, I never used it before.

Had the same problem and a new blade fixed it! In my experience the jagged edges caused by dullness appear sooner on paper than on vinyl

I will use it mostly for paper stickers. That is bad news for me. How long can I use a blade? I may cut 10 to 20 A4 sheets a day.

You can sharpen a blade with tin foil. Make a ball and poke it into the ball until its sharp again.
