Using the Lamination Placement option
Use this option to adjust the lengthwise or horizontal position of a PolyGuard patch on a card
so it appears centered. (Note: When adjusting this value, the cards always remain in the
same landscape orientation while moving through the Printer.)
The diagram (below) represents how the PolyGuard patch will move in relation to the fixed
card position as a positive or negative Lamination Placement value is entered.
Step Procedure
1 Move the patch toward the leading edge of the card or card output side of the
Printer by clicking the left arrow to enter a positive value.
OR
Move the patch toward the trailing edge of the card or card input side of the
Printer by clicking the right arrow to enter a negative value.

PolyGuard Patch Direction: The arrows on these buttons indicate the
direction the PolyGuard patch will move on the card.

Maximum Adjustment Range: The maximum adjustment range is
±
100. As
a rule, 10 equals about .030"/. 8mm, which is about the same as the
thickness of a standard CR-80 size card. (Note: Keep this in mind when
adjusting this option to avoid over-adjusting.)
Caution: If the positive value is set too high, the patch will hang off the
leading edge of the card.
