ATR 72 landing problems

Hi,

I have been flying the ATR 72 for just over 1 year now as FO and have about 600 hours on the type and 2000 hours total time. I am having problems with the landings and wondered if any pilots here, familiar with the type, have any advice.

To summarise, my approaches are stable and the touch downs are in the touch down zone, on the main gear and safe, no bounces, balloons etc but they all tend to be on the firm side. Are there any tips for landing this type, especially when using the normal speeds? My landings with the icing speeds tend to be a little smoother if that is any clue to my problem?

Any advice would be great, thanks.
