E-i Impor tan t S afety Instruc tions Y our OKI printer has been carefully designed to gi ve 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.
E-ii • 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.

E-v ! Conventions Used in This Guide The following con ventions are used in this guide: • Notes containing general information are preceded by the Note icon.
English-1 S ec tion 1: Getting Star ted Unpack Choose a sturdy table, desk or printer stand to place your printer on when you remove it from the carton.
E-2 Section 1 2. Lift up on the ridged area at either end of the carriage cover. 3 . Peel the clear protective f ilm from the access cover. 4. Press the carriage cover back into place.
Getting Started E-3 4. Remove the styrofoam shipping retainer, then lower the paper separator and press it into place. It is recommended that the printer be switched off prior to opening or removing the access cover. Install/Replace the Ribbon Cartridge Be sure to use only ribbons specifically designated for MICR OLINE 520/521 printers.
E-4 Section 1 2. Remove the new ribbon cartridge from its packaging. Leave the ribbon shield on the cartridge! 3. Holding the ribbon cartridge with the knob ( ) facing up and the ribbon shield ( ) facing the platen, fit the grooves on either side at the back end of the cartridge over the pins on the ribbon plate ( ).
Getting Started E-5 Connec t to P ow er and Computer Y ou 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. These instructions are for the standard parallel inter- face.
E-6 Section 1 P ow er Up T urn the printer on: • The printhead will cross back and forth along the platen, and the pins will gently fire to determine the printhead gap setting. • The PO WER 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.
Getting Started E-7 Loading Rear-Feed Paper 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. If you have any paper in the paper path, be sure to remove it from the path before installing rear-feed paper! 1.
E-8 Section 1 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 ( ).
Getting Started E-9 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 ( ).
E-10 Section 1 Loading Single-Sheet Paper The single-sheet path is best for letterhead stationery, memos, and en velopes and is recommended for printing graphs and charts because it provides the most accurate control of the paper.
Getting Started E-11 4. Adjust the paper feed guides ( ) for the width of the paper and drop a sheet of paper into the separator. 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.
E-12 Section 1 Set the T op of Form The red line ( ) on the clear plastic paper shield shows the baseline of the current printing position to help you place the top of form. T o set the T op of Form: SEL SEL LF FF/LOAD TEAR P ARK QUIET SHIFT Micro Feed Down TOF Micro Feed Up EXIT GROUP SET PRINT ITEM MENU 1 .
Getting Started E-13 Run the Self T ests 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.
E-14 Section 1 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 .
English-15 S ec tion 2: Maintaining Y our Printer Replacing the Ribbon Cartridge T o replace the ribbon cartridge, see “Install/Replace the Ribbon Cartridge” in Section 1.
E-16 Section 2 4 . Lift the paper separator, open the tractors and remove the paper. 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.
Maintaining Your Printer E-17 Cleaning the Housing Y ou should clean the printer every six months (or after about 300 hours of operation). 1 . T urn the printer OFF . 2 . Remove the paper from the path. 3 . Open the access cover and remove the pull-up roller assembly.
