You should be able to treat the ink+media+laminate as just another
combination of printing materials. However, some laminates do cause
problems. I've seen flourescent laminates that just aren't fun to
profile. You also need to watch out for non-repeatable lamination
processes. For example, if you're laminating with heat, then does the
heat cause the paper or ink to change color, and if so, are you applying
the same amount of heat with each sheet you laminate?
Treat it just like any other profiling scenario. Check to see if you
can trust the spectrophotometer to measure this particular combination
of printing materials, and that the entire printing process (including
lamination) is repeatable.
