IMPORTANT
Never attempt to laminate the following items:
• Leaves or other organic material – moisture will be boiled out, potentially ruining the lamination,
damaging the electronics in the machine and creating risk of electric shock.
• Wax crayon drawings – the wax will melt, destroying the drawing. Molten wax could be extruded into
the machine and cause extensive damage.
• Documents printed on thermal paper or Polaroid-type instant photos – the images will disappear.
• Any item that is creased or which has irregular thickness – it could cause a jam or damage the rollers.
• Artwork assembled with glue or incorporating glitter-glue. The glue will melt and run into the laminator.
• Any item that is not heat-resistant.
