Curl free reinforced paper sheet technique

A process for making and using reinforced non-jamming paper sheets in high speed copying machines comprising the steps of:

• coating wide rolls of low friction polymer film one-thousandth of an inch or less in thickness with a thin layer of adhesive one thousandth of an inch or less in thickness;
• slitting the adhesive coated film into thin strips in the order of 3/8 inch to 3/4 inch wide;
• rolling up the thin strips of coated film;
• applying the thin strips of adhesive coated film simultaneously to both sides of the paper near but slightly spaced from one edge of the paper, to avoid asymmetric stressing of the edges of the paper, thereby preventing curling thereof;
• cutting the double-side reinforced rolls of paper into sheets;
• punching holes through the reinforcing and the paper;
• and
• feeding the reinforced sheets of paper into a high speed copier machine;
• whereby the double side reinforced paper is substantially curl-free and does not jam the copier machines.

A process for making and using reinforced non-jamming paper sheets in high speed copying machines comprising the steps of:

• preparing thin strips of adhesive coated low friction polymer film one-thousandth of an inch in thickness or less, and having a coating of adhesive one thousandth of an inch or less, in thickness thereon;
• applying the thin strips of adhesive coated film in substantially the same manner to both sides of the paper near but slightly spaced from one edge of the paper, to avoid asymmetric stressing of the edges of the paper, thereby preventing any substantial curling thereof;
• cutting the double-side reinforced paper into sheets;
• punching holes through the reinforcing film and the paper;
• whereby the edges of the double side reinforced paper are substantially curl-free, even when subject to varying ambient conditions.
