Inkjet prints curling up!

I like to print maps off Google Earth Pro; don't trust GPS. I print in color but they curl up after a while. Anyway to cure this besides putting them between two pieces of plywood? BTW, I write directions on the back. Thanks.

Inkjet or laser printer?  What paper are you printing on?

Inkjet; Staples Tru Red paper. Should have mentioned it.

Greetings,

True Red - Red is 92 brightness and rated for black and white. 

True Red - Blue is 96 brightness.  It's designated for black and white or color.  

If you are throwing a great deal of ink down, you may want to consider a higher quality paper.  This should be less susceptible to curling.

You are using an ordinary 20 lb. copier/laser paper, which doesn't have the ability to hold heavy inkjet coverage. That's why it's curling. You need a heavier weight paper, or card stock. Or a coated inkjet photo paper.
