To what are your rendering intents set? What are you inputting, bitmap or vector, CMYK or RGB? If this information is buried somewhere in the myriad of responses, I apologize. Reading all of the coloristas' lengthy responses tries my patience.

Before you start replacing parts try removing any dust cover over the cutting mechanism and then blowing all of the dust and crud from the cutting tackle paying particular attention the the blade up/down mechanism.

All of the above is good advice but anytime a plotter starts flakey behavior such as you have shown, remove any dust cover from the tool carriage and blow all of the dust and crud out of the carriage. Pay particular attention to the blade up/down mechanism.

Would you charge as much per square foot for a 12"x12" print as you would for a 10'x10' print? If you do you'll either go broke or pis$ people off. You need to use a sliding scale where the price per square foot starts at some maximum per ft^2 and decreases to some minimum per ft^2 the larger...
