Imperfect bottom surface

The bottom surface of my prints are always less than perfect - I wonder why ? I print a lot of PLA & nGen. Same for every filament. I have two MK2s - same situation in both of them.

Any idea what's wrong ? Thanks in advance.

looks to me as if your Live 'Z' adjustment is too low

have a look at Jeff's method,

Thanks. Yes, it was too low. Reducing it helped a lot - but it is not perfect yet. Working on it!
