Using the included lamination guide, select appropriate temperature setting
for the pouch gauge thickness and material you are laminating.
Temperature Setting Guidelines*
When laminating thin paper with light ink coverage, set the temperature
dial at the low end of the range. Thick paper and heavy ink coverage
require higher settings within the range. Temperature setting will vary due
to the finish, chemistry and heat absorption properties of the material
being laminated. If pouch is cloudy the first pass through the machine,
adjust temperature higher and run through again. If waviness occurs,
reduce the temperature. Always allow sufficient time for laminator to
adjust to changes in temperature setting.
