NOTE: The speed can be adjusted (slower or faster)
depending on at what speed you have the best total
transfer of the toner into the film.
NOTE: Low temperature heat assist (120° F/49°C) on
the Over-laminate will reduce silvering on the final
output.
NOTE: The clutch tension pressure should not exceed
40 psi. This will prevent excessive pull on the film,
affecting the output.

IMPORTANT! We recommend maintaining these tem-
peratures during long runs to ensure the highest-quality
output. Do not allow the top roller temperature to drop
below 290° F (143°C). Allow the bottom roller to cool
down if the temperature exceeds 160° F (71°C) before
continuing the process.
