In my experience (which includes a few months services laser printers) The worst cause of paper jams due to curling is trying to print double sided on a machine not designed for it . The dampness of the paper may contribute a bit more. However damp paper wont tolerate laser printing - the moisture makes the paper conduct, and so the printing goes all blurry.
