Turn it on and warm it up. At the back are two rollers that you slide the material in the laminated sleeve through. After it's warmed up (five minutes or so), check to make sure it's warm enough to work by taking your index finger and pushing it in between the two wheels (may require some force). If it's pleasantly warm to the touch, you're good to go!

I think you can use regular paper. They have those little sleeves you can slide the sheet in. Where are you that you get to use a laminating machine unsupervised?

The laminating machine is second only to the postage machine in terms of office equipment only a few people are allowed to use but for different reasons.

You ever been at a really loud party. I mean a good loud party, where the music is playing too loud, and everybody is talking too loudly, and in order to be heard even by the person standing right next to you, you've got to be screaming at the top of you lungs. But every now and then at a party, it seems as though everyone shuts up at the same time...and only your voice...can be heard. "Right, I know. I know. Well, what I'm going to do, I'm gonna have my testicles laminated." Life's little moments.

Heat-sealing something between two layers of plastic. Licenses and I.D.s used to be laminated and much easier to forge.
Do Social Security cards still say 'do not laminate' on them? They are still just pieces of blue paper, right?

Exactly what I used to use one for as a kid....used to make fake I.D.s in Serif PagePlus back in like 1995, then print them out on the colour school laser printer, then laminate them in the evening when I worked in a video rental store. Made me some decent money.

Make sure you keep your dong away from the Laminator and also don't try to get high off the fumes.

Mine sure does, which is annoying as poo poo.

They say you're not supposed to keep it in your wallet, but it seems like there's a ton of things that require you to present the actual physical card for someone to verify that yes, you aren't just making up some fake-rear end SSN, so of course most people keep it with them and then it gets beat to hell since it's just flimsy paper and you're not supposed to laminate it.

Also and furthermore what's up with the lines at the post office and the DMV and

Should be fine. The final weight will depend on how thick the laminate is.

well now your video store is out of business you should have rolled with the punches and converted into a fax/copy shop before you all went bus. literally sending business away. never make the forbes list with that attitude.

Watch me sperg on your sexual innuendo.

Card stock will result in a "thicker" and "stiffer" end product if that's what you want, but the real question is what's the thickness of your laminating sheets? That's what's really gonna get your laminated stuff hard. Use 5mil as opposed to 3mil if that's an option, or hell, even heavier if you can get it. Just know that the heavier the laminate, the longer you need to apply heat and pressure to give it a stiffy.

Why yes, I have used a 60-inch industrial laminator/mounting machine before, why do you ask?
