  Very pleased with my sp300 I got up and running today , lovely prints !
  So need a laminator but hoping to get one about a grand any advice ? Not fussed about hot laminator but must be easy to use for one person and decent quality ?
  Anyone bought one recently they could recommend ? I only need a 760mm one

  🙁 I really could do with some advice guys??
  Are these chinese ones a bag of poo ? or decent value ? I also found a good used Surelam GMP pro800 but it looks like it uses laminate without backing paper so I am presuming not for sign digital print ?
  any experiences of what you have tried greatly appreciated before I spend over a grand on the wrong bit of kit ?

  Kind regards Carl

  Carl I bought a secondhand Jet Mounter 1220 wide for that money (i only need a 760 wide) I can certainly recommend that brand and ive heard good things about easymount too

  Thanks Martin , I am going to consider one , the used hot laminator on eBay seems a bit complex for my needs , I could buy one of these and wait for something like an easymount 880 to come up slightly used .

  We have a big 52" Seal but for smaller jobs we use this its a metre wide.
  Printed a few hundred labels onto 610 wide silver yesterday and laminated them today with this. Very good piece of kit, and simple to use.
