Full details

This guide is for individuals and offices needing to create professionally bound documents. The GBC LeatherGrain Thermal Binding Covers offer a quick and clean way to achieve a paperback book look, binding up to 15 sheets with a secure adhesive spine. A potential limitation is the 1.5mm spine width, which restricts the number of pages that can be bound.

Troubleshooting

Document pages are not securely bound.

Ensure the thermal binder was at the correct operating temperature and the binding time was sufficient. Verify that the document does not exceed the 15-sheet capacity for the 1.5mm spine. Ensure pages are squared correctly before insertion.

The cover is wrinkled or damaged after binding.

Check that the correct capacity cover (1.5mm) is being used for the number of sheets. Ensure the binder is not overheating and that the document is allowed to cool completely before handling.

Adhesive strip does not seem to be working.

Confirm the thermal binder is fully heated. Ensure the adhesive strip on the cover is not contaminated with dust or other particles. Follow the 3-step binding process precisely.
