Important Safety Instructions Your OKI printer has been carefully designed to give you years of safe, reliable performance. As with all electrical equipment, there are a few basic precautions you should take to avoid hurting yourself or damaging the printer: • Read the setup and operating instructions in this manual carefully. Be sure to save it for future reference. • Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the printer itself. • Unplug the printer before you clean it.
• If you’re using an extension cord or power strip with the printer, make sure that the total of the amperes required by all the equipment on the extension is less than the exten-sion’s rating. Generally, the total ratings of all equipment plugged into any one power line should not exceed 15 amps. Don’t exceed this unless you know that the power line your equipment is plugged into has a rating above 15 amps.

Conventions Used in This Guide The following conventions are used in this guide: • Notes containing general information are preceded by the Note icon. For example: 4 Interface cable and paper are sold separately. • Statements containing precautions against actions which could cause printing problems or damage to the printer are set in italics, preceded by the Caution icon.
Section 1: Getting Started Unpack If any of these items is missing or damaged, see your dealer immediately for a replacement. Choose a sturdy table, desk or printer stand to place your printer on when you remove it from the carton. Be sure to save all packing materials in case you need to ship the printer again. Check the box for these contents: Remove The Protective Film Ê Printer Ë Ribbon cartridge Ì Power cord 1. Peel the clear protective film from the carriage cover.
2. Lift up on the ridged area at either end of the carriage cover. Remove The Shipping Retainers 1. Open the access cover (Ê) by grasping the tabs at either end and lifting, then remove the printhead shipping retainer (Ë), leaving the cover open for installation of the ribbon. Ë Ê 3. Peel the clear protective film from the access cover. 2. Grasp the front edge of the paper separator (Ì) and pull it up. Ì 4. Press the carriage cover back into place.
4. Remove the styrofoam shipping retainer, then lower the paper separator and press it into place. Caution! If you are replacing the ribbon, the printhead may be HOT HOT! 1. With the access cover open, slide the printhead (Ê) to the center of the platen. Ê It is recommended that the printer be switched off prior to opening or removing the access cover. Install/Replace the Ribbon Cartridge + If you’re replacing the ribbon, lift up the cartridge at the end nearest the platen, then remove and discard it.
2. Remove the new ribbon cartridge from its packaging. ! Leave the ribbon shield on the cartridge! 3. Holding the ribbon cartridge with the knob (Ë) facing up and the ribbon shield (Ì) facing the platen, fit the grooves on either side at the back end of the cartridge over the pins on the ribbon plate (Í). Ì Ë Í E-4 Section 1 4. Lower the front of the cartridge over the printhead until it snaps into place, then turn the knob (Ë) in the direction of the arrow (clockwise) to take up the ribbon slack.
Connect to Power and Computer 3. Plug the other end into a 120-volt, grounded outlet. 3 You must supply the cable for connecting your printer to your computer. A shielded cable is required in order to ensure compliance of this equipment with FCC regulations. 3 These instructions are for the standard parallel inter- face. If you have the optional serial interface, see the instructions included with it. 1. Make sure both the printer and the computer are off. 2.
Power Up Load Paper Turn the printer on: Your printer has provision for • Single sheets (top feed) • Continuous-forms (rear feed) • The printhead will cross back and forth along the platen, and the pins will gently fire to determine the printhead gap setting. • The POWER light will come on. • The ALARM light will also come on, but don’t be concerned: it’s just telling you that there is no paper loaded.
Loading Rear-Feed Paper 2. Grasp the front edge of the paper separator (Ê) and pull it up to access the tractors. Ê The rear-feed path is recommended for printing reports, etc., on single-thickness, continuous fan-fold paper. For graphics or charts, it’s best to use the single-sheet paper path. 4 If you have any paper in the paper path, be sure to remove it from the path before installing rear-feed paper! 1. Move the paper lever to the position marked “REAR”. 3.
4. Position the right-hand tractor for the width of the paper you’re loading, then pull the paper through the opening between the printer and the rear cover, and place the first two holes on each side over the tractor pins (Í). Please note that an equal number of paper holes must be engaged on either tractor in order to ensure proper paper feed. 4 The movement of the left tractor is limited to ensure that the paper will always contact the paper sensor when loaded. 5.
7. Adjust the right tractor so that the paper holes are centered on the pins (careful—if paper is stretched too tight or left too loose, it can jam and cause problems), then lock the right tractor in place by pushing back on the lock lever ( ). Ð Ð 9. Push the FF/LOAD button. The paper will automatically feed into the printer and the ALARM light will go out. The printhead moves back and forth, gently firing the pins to sense the paper thickness and set the printhead gap. 10.
Loading Single-Sheet Paper 2. Move the paper lever to the position marked “TOP”. The single-sheet path is best for letterhead stationery, memos, and envelopes and is recommended for printing graphs and charts because it provides the most accurate control of the paper. ! If you have any continuous-form paper in the paper path, you must press the PARK button on the front panel to remove it from the path before loading single sheets. 1.
4. Adjust the paper feed guides (Ë) for the width of the paper and drop a sheet of paper into the separator. Ë The paper will automatically feed into the printer, and the printhead will move back and forth, gently firing the pins to sense the paper thickness and set the printhead gap. 5. Check the baseline for the Top of Form (TOF), indicated by the red line on the clear plastic paper shield (Í). Í If it’s OK, press the SEL button and you’re ready to start printing.
Ê Set the Top of Form The red line (Ê) on the clear plastic paper shield shows the baseline of the current printing position to help you place the top of form. When you’re done setting the TOF, press the SEL button (Ê) to reselect the printer. Temporarily Changing the Print Start Position To place the print start position lower for one page only: 1. Press SEL to deselect the printer. 2. Keep pressing the LF button until the red line on the paper shield reaches the new position.
Run the Self Tests Selecting an Emulation After you've installed ribbon and paper, you are ready to run the self tests. Do this any time you want to make sure the printer is functioning properly.
Selecting a Printer Driver The drivers in the table below are listed by decreasing compatibility with your printer: use one as close to the top of the list as possible. If your software does not have a printer driver from near the top of the list, call the manufacturer to see if they have added any drivers to those supplied when you purchased your software. 4 See your software documentation for instructions on how to install a printer driver.
Section 2: Maintaining Your Printer Replacing the Ribbon Cartridge To replace the ribbon cartridge, see “Install/Replace the Ribbon Cartridge” in Section 1. For the best results, use genuine Okidata ribbons, Part No. 52107001. Clearing Paper Jams ! Correcting for Continuing Rear-Feed Jams If the paper keeps jamming, you probably have bits of paper stuck in the paper path. 1. Turn off the printer. 2. Use the platen knob to back the paper out. 3.
4. Lift the paper separator, open the tractors and remove the paper. 6. Back the sheet out. 7. Replace the roller assembly. 8. Reload regular paper. 9. Close the access cover. 10. Turn the printer on. 11. Press the FF/LOAD button. Clearing Single Sheet Feed Jams 5. Fold some continuous-feed paper over three times to make a page four sheets thick and load it on the tractors. Use the platen knob to draw the sheet around the platen: this brings any jammed bits of paper out. E-16 Section 2 1.
Cleaning the Housing You should clean the printer every six months (or after about 300 hours of operation). 4. Use a clean, dry cloth to dust the area around the carriage shaft and platen. Be sure to remove any loose particles of paper. 1. Turn the printer OFF. 2. Remove the paper from the path. 3. Open the access cover and remove the pull-up roller assembly. 5. Reinstall the pull-up roller assembly. 6. Close the access cover.

If your printer is consistently printing too light, change the setting to -1; if it’s too dark, change the setting to +1. Proportional Spacing.
Using the Printer's Features Tear Feature This feature is normally turned off. To activate it: Ë Ê Ì Í LF FF/LOAD SHIFT Micro Feed Down Micro Feed Up GROUP ITEM SEL When you’re using continuous forms with either the built-in rear-feed tractor or the optional bottom-feed push tractor, you can use this feature to advance the forms up to the tear position so you can easily tear off a printed sheet without wasting paper or readjusting the printer.
4 If you have problems setting the Top of Form high enough on the page when using Forms Tear Off, see “Problem Solving.” Paper Park Feature 2. Swing the wire guide up into the paper separator, and swing the separator upright. 3. Move the paper lever to “TOP.” 4. Load single sheet paper. To switch to continuous-form feed: If you have continuous-form paper loaded and you wish to switch to another paper path, first tear off the printed pages, then press the PARK button.
Section 4: Problem Solving Problem: Nothing happens when I turn on the printer. Solution: The printer may not be plugged in. Check the power cord connection to the outlet and to your printer. If you’re using a power strip, make sure it’s turned on. Check to be sure that the fuse hasn’t blown or that the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. Problem: The printer doesn’t print when the computer sends data. Solutions: (1) The printer may be deselected.
Problem: I’ve installed a brand new ribbon and the printing is smeared and streaked. Problem: The Alarm light is on and the Character Pitch 15 light is flashing. Solution: The plastic ribbon shield is either loose or missing. The shield must be left on the ribbon when you are installing the cartridge. To remedy this situation, (caution—printhead may be HOT!) move the printhead to the center of the platen and lift off the ribbon cartridge. If the ribbon shield is loose, secure it in place properly.
Problem: The first line is printing too far down on the page and I can’t get it any higher using the SHIFT and LF/Micro Feed Down buttons. 10. Hold SHIFT button and press SEL button to exit Menu mode. Solution: The setting for the Top of Form (TOF) will be restricted if you have the Forms Tear-Off feature engaged when you set the TOF.
initialization string may still override the printer MENU and/or front panel settings. The I-Prime signal is sent over the parallel interface (pin 31) and will automatically override any settings you have made using the front panel buttons. To eliminate this problem, enter the program MENU (hold SHIFT button while pressing SEL/MENU button) and change the IPrime item (in the Parallel I/F group) to Invalid. Problem: The Print Quality and Character Pitch buttons on the front panel won’t work.
