About Lamination Film and Optical Media
Lamination Film for your Optical Disc Laminator is available in both a clear and holographic finish. The Holographic Overlaminate is used as a security feature making your discs easily identifiable as authentic. Holographic Overlaminate is also available with your own design when purchased in quantity. Please contact your dealer for details. Most inkjet printable discs will work well with some adjusting for heat. Because it is impossible to test all types of media, it is highly recommended you purchase a small amount for testing before committing to a large, bulk purchase of media.
If you are having trouble with lamination quality, consider purchasing Accent Certified Media Kits. Kits contain CDs or DVDs that are specifically tested and certified for use with the Accent. These discs are the best possible combination of burnable surface, printable surface and lamination surface. For more information, visit our web store at www.primerastore.com.

2.Once the READY LED is on and steady, the Laminator is at heat and ready to laminate your discs. You may need to make adjustments to the Laminator heat settings to ensure high quality output. Start with a test lamination to see if any adjustment will need to be made. This is done as follows:
a.Place a disc on the Disc Tray.
b.Press the Laminate Button.
c.The disc will be drawn into the Laminator, laminated and the tray will be ejected.
d.Examine the disc. If the lamina- tion looks spotty, more heat is required. Increase the intensity. If the lamination shows scratch- like marks, the film is getting too hot and wrinkling. Reduce the heat setting.
