Note
There are many variables that affect the temperature and speed (paper, ink, toner, moisture). This sheet is just a
guide, but don't hesitate to try new combinations. Finally, remember that speed and temperature can vary with
the size of print; smaller prints require more speed, larger prints require less speed.

Most often, when pressure sensitive materials are run at 120 ºF, they tend to apply cleaner. That is to say, the
"silvering" usually seen with these products becomes less evident or may even disappear.

Most laminating on the ORCA-III is done with 80 psi on the main laminator roll and 80 psi on both the pull roll
clutch and the pull rolls. (This may vary with the thickness of the paper(s) used. The thick papers traditionally need
a full 75-80 psi.
The thinner papers, such as tissue papers or light bond papers, can run as low as 55 psi (main laminator roll
pressure).

Most of the mounting for the ORCA-III laminator is done between 20 and 50 psi. The only "rule" is not to crush
your substrate or create an impression in your white silicone rolls with repeated high pressure use in the same place.
Again, slight heat (120 ºF) seems to help the adhesives flow when using the pressure sensitive materials.

The top roll heat should be set to 290 ºF, with as speed of 1.5-2.5 fpm. The main roll pressure should be at 90 psi.
The pull roll clutch should be at 50 psi. The pull roll should be set at 75-80 psi. Always allow the transferred image
to cool prior to removing the transfer paper.
