Adjusting the Card Flattener
Use the adjustable Card Flattener to fine-tune the flatness of laminated cards. (Note: This
flattener works by reverse bending cards as they eject from the laminator while they are still
warm.)
Step
Procedure
1
Verify there is no card warpage. (Note: In most cases, card warpage is only a
concern when laminating on a single side of card stock that has a PVC-based
core rather than a polyester-based core.)
Caution: Cards with a PVC-based core are not as heat resistant and
therefore are not recommended for use when laminating.)
2
If experiencing an unacceptable amount of card warpage, refer to Step 5 to in
order to adjust the Card Flattener. (Note: By default, the Card Flattener is
configured at the factory to accommodate UltraCard III type card stock.)
3
Open the Lamination Top Cover.
4
Remove the over-laminated material if installed.
