Grain usually comes from rasterization. So first you should check your

An influence the profile can have is the black generation curve.
Many laser printers have "noise" in the printing process that
is analogous to, but different to screening or banding in
inkjet printers. The black ink has the highest contrast, so
a CMYK profile with a high level of black will tend to
exacerbate such effects. Just like inkjets, a laser printer
gets a smoother looking image if the CMY and K levels are
approximately equal for neutral colors.
