Adjusting the Card Guide Rail
If applying PolyGuard overlaminate, you may find that the individual patch from the
overlaminate roll may be off-center when applied to a card. (Note: Although the patch
placement will vary slightly from card to card, they should never hang over the edge of
the card.) See Card Lamination Module
.
To center the vertical placement of these patches across the card width, a mechanical
adjustment can be made. If the PolyGuard patches are being applied too closely to or
overlapping a card's top or bottom edge (as the card travels through the Printer), the
Laminator's Card Guide Rail should be adjusted. (Note: This adjustment is described
below.)
Step Procedure
1 Open the Lamination Module's Top Cover and Lamination Station.
2 a. Feed a blank card into the module by inserting it through the output
Hopper and reverse feeding it by pressing the Lamination module's
Resume button.
b. Manually position the card so its edge is flush with the Card Guide Rail.
