To much pressure on the rollers.
Dont crank it up really tight, but enough to get some pressure on it, unless it’s heated you might experience a little silvering depending on the laminate.

I will try that next time thanks Dave 🙂

Don’t know if thats the definitive answer but I’ve had that issue in the past it seems to resolve it, only trouble is you can’t release the pressure 1/2 way through a print, or you get a band across the image.
-
are you using a leader board?
-
I don’t use a leader board, even when I have once laminating paper if the pressure is too much I get exactly the same problem.
It may be something completely different that causes it.
-
I would also say too much pressure
-
I would be inclined to check the tensions of both films.

Probably too much pressure. I had the same problems at first but since talking to and having a demo off an Easymount tech guy I’m pretty good at laminating now.
Make sure your laminate grippy tube bits (sorry dont knoe technical name) are tight so there’s plenty of tension there.
Any silvering goes after a while. -
Yes too much pressure…thanks guys
