Don't you think that a little more description of your problem besides, "having trouble," might elicit more and better responses?

Of course I can. I can do anything. I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert!
 
Generically speaking, our operators sometimes have issues:

1. material has rust. they usually will palm sand rust off for better results.
2. oxygen pressure too high (or low), especially in tight geometries, causing blowouts.
3. then you have the usual suspects like with everything else like focus, feedrate etc.

What exactly is your problem? Blow outs, hard dross, edge quality?
