IMPORTANT: The top and bottom rolls of laminating
film must be the same width.
Always change the top and bottom supply rolls at the
same time.
The film will wrap around the rollers if:
One or both rolls of film are allowed to run
completely off its core.
Only one roll is used.
Different widths of rolls are loaded together.
Either roll is loaded with the adhesive side
against a roller.
There are two methods of loading film.
Using a threading card.
Tacking new film to existing film.
These are described in "Threading Film with a
Threading Card" on page 6-5 and "Loading Film by
Tacking New Film to Existing Film" on page 6-7. Prior
to loading film, the print clamp and feed table need
to be removed.
