Load laminate
1
Open the laminator door by 
pulling the top of the door 
toward you.
2
Press the laminator cartridge 
eject button and remove the 
laminator cartridge carefully. 
The material must be tight 
when removing the cartridge.
3
Place the roll of 
material and 
empty take-up 
spool side by side 
on a clean 
surface.
4
Remove the label from the 
patch or topcoat material and 
use it to secure the free end of 
the material to the empty take-
up spool, making sure the 
edges are even.
5
Load the new roll of material 
on the cartridge:
a
Put the full roll of material 
on the supply spindle.
b
Put the empty take-up 
spool on the take-up 
spindle.
c
Align the material along 
the four metal guides as 
shown on the cartridge 
label.
d
Wind two or three 
rotations of film onto the 
take-up spool. Take up 
slack between the spools 
by turning the supply knob 
clockwise. If slack cannot 
be removed, check that 
the supply and take-up 
spools are firmly seated on 
the spindles. 
6
Replace the loaded laminator 
cartridge in the laminator until 
it clicks into position.
7
Close the laminator door.
Tips: Handling patch
or topcoat material 
After powering on the 
laminator, the patch or 
topcoat material must be 
initialized. Press the 
laminator’s RESET/
K
 and 
then the ENTER keys to 
initialize the material.
The inside of the laminator 
contains hot surfaces. Use 
care when working in these 
areas.
Keep unused laminating 
material in the original 
package. 
Don't place material on a 
dusty or dirty surface — dirt 
can affect card quality.
During the laminating 
process, do not turn the 
power switch off, open the 
laminator door, or unplug the 
laminator. 
 for more information 
about laminating material.
