D. Adjusting
the Laminator

When applying the PolyGuard overlaminate, you
may find that the individual polyester chips from
the overlaminate roll may be slightly off-center
when applied to a card. This is due to slight
variations in the position of the chips on each
individual overlaminate roll. To center these chips,
two simple adjustments can be made.

Please refer to the following steps to adjust the
side-to-side

position of the PolyGuard chip:

1.

If the PolyGuard chips are being applied too

closely to, or overlapping, a cardÕs leading or
trailing edge, the laminatorÕs Card Sensor should be
adjusted. To do this, simply loosen the single screw
which fastens the sensor to the Card Guide Rail.

2.

If the PolyGuard

chip is being placed
more toward a cardÕs
trailing edge (as shown),
move the Card Sensor
slightly toward the card
input end of the printer
(opposite the direction
you would like the chip
to move).

3.

If the PolyGuard

chip is being placed
more toward a cardÕs
leading edge (as shown),
move the Card Sensor
slightly toward the card
output end of the
printer (opposite the
direction you would like
the chip to move).
