Oki 80 Series Manuale utente

IMPORTANT

You have just bought the best printer, so be sure to use only the ribbons

recommended for it. Original OKI ribbons are the only ones that the

manufacturers recommend. Ask for them by name.

Please remember that if you buy any other ribbon your arranty may be

invalidated.

Purchasing inferior ribbons really does not make sense. They do not last

as long. What is more, they are prone to shredding, hich can cause

damage to your printhead. Any short term savings on cheap ribbons are

quickly lost.

So do not aste your time and money . . . insist on OKI consumables for

your OKI printer.

You can order them from your printer supplier.
