Laminating

[securespark]

Got meself a new toy.

Just before I risk wrecking it, can you laminate photos?

Wondering if the ink will be affected by the heat...

Thanks.

I find placing the pouch between two pieces of card, (such as photo card), helps seal the laminate more effectively and doesn't make the rollers sticky over time.
The quality of the pictures is not affected at all.

I once found that a colour inkjet printout DID run when I laminated it, but I haven't had that happen since. I have no idea why. Same printer, same paper, same laminator, same laminate.

Risked it and it's fine!!

Cheers guys.

Once piece of advice.

You can not use this machine to obtain a laminated floor!

You're right.
I tried it with a piece of wood. It wasn't bendy enough to go through my machine.

Looks like we've all tried it...

The bendiness of the wood I found was not the issue, however, the thickness was...
