Film Loading
1. Place the roll of single sided PS film on the top supply mandrel. Orient it the same way you
would poly in thermal film (see figure 1, page 7).
2. Thread film under top idler bar.
3. Peel back release liner and tape it to an empty cardboard core on rewind shaft.
4. Attach a sheet of scrap paper to the film. Ensure that your paper is wider than your film. Also
be sure to never run the machine without paper. This will prevent film from sticking to the
bottom roller. See diagram below…
Optional
: When testing we run butcher paper from the bottom supply mandrel to run prints
without overlap. Butcher paper should be wider or equal to the film width.
Note:
Cold laminate can be made more pliable by using a heat assist from the top roller.
Turn the top heater on only and set to 100°F.
