The fuser in the printer runs at 205C (plus or minus), so I'm not surprised that a laminator needs to run hotter than that to achieve toner transfer.
I don't see why you couldn't do this to any laminator if you could work out how to re-work the temperature control circuit as well. This one was easy, just a resistor and a poteniometer to change.

I assume this could be performed on any laminator if one wanted to take the rollers to a hotter temperature than they are designed for...
250 Degrees, I am surprised it needs to go this high, I wonder why HP decided to use that kind of toner....
