I've had this HP printer now for jsut over a year and i found out that jsut recently when anyone from my office sends a print job to this printer, it will curl the top portion of every second sheet. Also in rare cases it will get papers jams however i believe the two issue are related to one another.

Does anyone have ideas as to what would be going on? I realize this may be a hardware issue however someone must have come across this issue at least once in their lives.
 
Ok, what printer? Color? B&W?
It sounds like a runaway fuser heater.
If this unit will print a supplies page, see if the fuser is near end of life.
