Software Problems

It is essential to ensure that you have installed the correct Oki printer drivers. If printing from a DOS text box, your application should be set up for printing with an HP LaserJet™ II or compatible driver.

Problem

Solution

Printing is garbled.

Incorrect driver is installed or selected. Install or select Oki drivers provided with printer.

 

 

Printer's output is below rated speed.

Much of the printing delay will be caused by your application. Complex graphic images may take longer to prepare for printing than simple text documents.
