SYSTEM AND APPARATUS FOR DELAMINATING A LAMINATE CONTAINING IMAGE BEARING MEDIA

摘要

A method and system are disclosed for controlling the temperature of a delaminating surface in a range which reduces the formation of pinholes in an image bearing layer on an image bearing medium upon release of a laminated protective coating from its carrier web during delamination of the medium from the carrier web, as well as minimizes the formation of laminating artifacts in the image bearing medium.
