If the pouch starts coming out, be sure you don’t pull on it too hard.
Again if your laminator has a reverse mode, turn the device back on and give this a try. If this is the case then there are a few things you can try: 
Have a good look to see what the problem is, more often than not, the pouch will have wrapped itself around the roller. Wait for the machine to cool before attempting to remove the pouch. The first thing to do with a jam is to turn off the power either the on/off switch or at the socket, this will avoid the motor burning out. If your laminator has a reverse button, you can press this straight away if the pouch appears to not be going in straight or is crinkled, this will remove the document for you to try again. As a general rule we recommend around 130 degrees at a medium speed for 80 micron pouches.ĭespite your best efforts, occasionally a jam can occur but with a bit of care it can often be resolved. Ensure the temperature and speed are set correctly, otherwise if a pouch goes through too slowly at a too high temperature it can cause problems. Crinkled documents or curled edges can cause problems inside your laminator. Make sure the document you are laminating is the correct size for the pouch and that is is flat. Take extra care when inserting pouches into your laminator, make sure they are in the middle and that they enter straight, this will prevent them from touching the sides and subsequently wrapping around the rollers. Always use good quality pouches, inferior quality pouches can leak adhesive onto the rollers of your machine which will build up over time and cause jams. 
Ideally prevention is better than cure so trying to avoid jams in the first place will help. Laminators are great when they are working well but are a real pain if the pouch gets jammed. They are very handy for preserving important documents or creating signs.
Most schools, offices and a good number of homes have a pouch laminator. How do you fix a jammed laminator? Is one of our common questions from our customers.
