The printer hardware should even this out when printing. You should also ensure the paper meets the automatic feeder requirements of the printer.
If printing is skewed, feeding multiple pages or jamming, please follow these instructions (use a regular letter size paper to test after doing the steps given below):
Please check to ensure there is nothing obstructing the paper feed mechanism down inside the printer where it is not easily seen. If there is nothing obvious, unplug the printer and remove the paper. Open the front cover and look above the steel rod. You should see a conveyor belt with rubber teeth on it, like a fan belt. Take the bottom part of that belt and move it gently to the left. The cartridges should come out with it. Make sure the cartridges can move fully from one side of the printer to the other. Check also the output rollers on the bottom of the printer for any blockage. If it is jamming under the carrier assembly, you may be able to fix it using the manual feed slot. Turn the printer off. Next take a #10 envelope and feed it through the left side of the paper feed slot (The manual paper feed slot is preferred, but the automatic feed will do if there is no manual paper feed for this printer) until it comes completely through the printer to the back of the exit rollers. Move it up and down and slowly move it over to the right side. If something is stuck under the black guide plate this may work it loose or you may have to feed the envelope through the front rollers and push your way backward (please be careful here).
Next, take a damp warm cloth and clean the rubber rollers in the automatic sheet feeder. Dust may be coating the rollers there and as they become less tacky, they cannot feed paper correctly.
Finally, turn the printer upside down and carefully shake it for 10 to 20 seconds to see if something falls out of the paper feed path. Then plug the printer back up, take your paper out and replace it with a fresh, small stack (about 5 pages) of paper. Quickly bend the stack in an 'S' shape a few times to separate pages. Make sure it is lined up on the right side of the paper feed and the paper guide on the left is snug on the left side of the paper. Then try to form feed again. If that works, then try to print again.

Good Luck!!!!

My samsung ml-1610 printer always getting paper jam on print job. Is this problem related to fuser or something else? please help me...

There are a series of rollers which are made of rubber in the unit. When these rollers become dry or covered with dust (usually from cheap paper) they arent able to pick up paper correctly any longer.

Think of it as though you are trying to turn a page, and you have to lick your finger to do so.

Its the same concept. When your printer grabs the paper, it cannot hold it while it is rolling it through the printer.

There are kits available through your manufacturer or a local print shop which can clean your printer and help to restore it to its working order.

Hope this helps!

My Samsung ML-2010 laser printer grabbed up 2 sheets of paper and now both are jammed. I can't pull them out. Now what could I do?

Removing paper jams from printers can be tricky. You'll want to be careful to not tear off the paper. Always try to pull the paper in the feed direction if you can. The Samsung should have a doo in the back or in the paper area that can be opened to assist in removing the jam. If this persists, you may need to replace the paper feed rollers.

Paper jam

You could try cleaning the tires if you can get to them and check to see if there isn't any paper stuck in the paper path.
