Oki c5100n printing yellow color offset
What is the stats % of drums if low under 50% change them, soon as you add non Gen you throw a spanner in any attempt to fault find, fix is possible toner more than likely drum/drums, do a print of each colour and change drums as indicated by failure in its colour to print, check transport belt is OK and led heads are clean
Time to replace fuser?
Cant picture you fault, if fuser is over 12 months old then change it, it should have smooth orange rubber rollers, not
serviceable item normally.
I'm not sure but I think you issue may be you are not setting the paper type correctly to suit media you are printing on ie card. If this is the case fuser runs at wrong temp an fails to apply enough heat to fuse/melt the toner into the paper and fuser rollers gunk up.

Paper jam 580
You know what I would try, look in the fuser unit and see if any paper ripped off and got stuck in there. Wait until it's cooled down, but usually if you have to pull paper of of there, little pieces can get caught in there. Also, you may have a full sheet in there, I've had people leave and entire sheet in the fuser all scrunched up and the machine print fine for another 100 prints and then have an error and the paper coming out looking like it almost caught fire.
That's where I would look first if there isn't anything in the print path under the toners, etc.
Fatal error
Fatal Error K (for BLACK) - Black toner or drum problem, Drum life exceeded? Display would of said black drum near life before failing.
Yellow Lines on every print
If the optics are clean (use lint free cloth on 4 rows of black thingys underside of lid)
Then it sounds like the yellow drum needs to be replaced, when printing in word I'm guessing that you have it set to B/W prints hence no colour is engaged, no lines
Connection problems for oki C5100. Eek.
Your USB cable is either too long (more than 9 feet), or too thin. This makes the connection strong enough for status, but too weak for data transmission. Install a good quality cable and let me know.

Non-printing gap/line down page
Hey Danzo,
This error is usually caused by dirt (usually toner) on the laser lens. There should be a cleaner pad somewhere on your machine (though I am not totally familiar with Oki) that will wipe across the lens.
If there is no pad, you may have to find access to the lens and wipe it manually with a tissue or similar

Putting right the ip address ?
Before you proceed you need to know the static IP, Subnet Mask and Gateway address for this printer. Once you have them:
-Enter the menu mode by pressing the + button
-Press the + button till you come to the Network Menu.
-Press the Enter button. You should now see TCP/IP. Make sure it says Enabled which is the default setting.
-Press the + button till you come to IP address then press the Enter button.
- IP addresses (for now) consist of four octets or four groupings of three numbers such as in this example *192.168.001.123*. Using the + or - buttons (+ counts up 0,1,2,3?.; - counts down 255,254,253?..) you are going to set the number of the first octet or in the case of the example *192*. Once you?ve set it correctly hit the Enter button.
-Do the same for the other three octets. Hitting the Enter button after setting the fourth octet will set the new IP and take you back to the TCP/IP menu.
- Press the + button till you see Subnet Mask and press the enter button.
- Just like the IP address the Subnet Mast consists of four octets. Set the value to you needs just as you did with the IP address. Again when you hit the enter button after setting the fourth octet you will be taken back to the TCP/IP menu.
- Again press the + button till you come to Gateway Address and hit enter. Enter the Gateway IP address exactly like you did when setting the IP address. Don?t forget to hit the enter button to set the address. You should now be at the TCP/IP menu again.
-To exit the menu press the On-line button on the printer.
Your printer should now be configured with you IP address, subnet mask and gateway address. As an added check I would go back into the menu by pressing the + button, going into the Information Menu and printing selecting the Print Menu Map option. Verify the setting we just made with what is printed out at the top of the page. If everything matches you?re ready to go!
