One great problem for me with my LaserJet+ is the tendency of the output
paper to curl upwards at the top and bottom a few minutes after it
leaves the printer.  This can cause real problems when you try to
photocopy larger laser printed documents.

Is this all printers, or only Canon engine ones, or only LaserJets?

What methods have people used to combat this situation?  Are
some particular kinds of paper better?  Thicker or thinner?  I have tried
the paper upside down and rightside up.  I have tried removing it from the
tray to cool upside-down, which helps a bit.  I have taken my documents
and pressed them under heavy weights for a day, and this also helps.

Any other notes?  (I don't know about manual fed paper, which would avoid
the curving paper path, but this isn't really a viable alternative.  The
paper curls the opposite way from the way that it was bent coming out of
the tray, anyway.)
