Okidata Microline 320 turbo problem

We recently upgraded two old workstations to a Lenovo Thinkcentre and since then we've been having issues printing using the parallel port to our microline 320 printers. Occasionally, without any prompting, the printer stops responding to all commands, and refuses to feed paper or print, but immediately when i disconnect the parallel cable the printer begins responding and feeding paper. I've found no information anywhere about anybody having this problem, and the technical support line for both the computer manufacturer and printer manufacturer were no help. Anybody have any ideas? Any help would be incredibly appreciated.

Solved this problem by going into the bios and changing the port from ECP to EPP, and then uninstalling the ECP port in device manager and replacing it with a standard parallel port configuration, no problems since doing that.

My Okidata 320 microline print cartridge is leaking ink. What does this mean?

The Okidata Microline 320 uses a ribbon. If it smears, just back the tension lever off until it goes away. Smearing will happen with multi-part forms unless you back off the printhead.

I have oki microline 320 elite and printer head jams

In my own experience, Okidata printers have a nasty habit of collecting a lot of paper dust. To start out, I would suggest a really good cleaning, with no paper in the machine, with a can of compressed air. If that does not solve your problem, you might have to replace your feed wheel assembly. Hope this helps!

My Okidata Microline 320 at my office has started printing our invoices with white/blank lines throughout the page, to the point where entire lines are illegible. I have so far tried changing the ink...

this sounds like a print head issue. a replacement printhead is the way to go.

Installed a new okidata microline 320 turbo dot matrix printer and now the tear/set button does not set the paper where i need it to as my old printer did. How can i change the tear line setting?

Make sur that the paper length is correct in the settings. With paper in the printer hold down the "SHIFT" button then press the "SEL/MENU" button. The "SEL" indicatr will light up. Now press the "PARK" button, a settings page will print. Select your paper length you require by going through the settings, if you press the "LF" button it wil take you through the different groups of settings, the "FF/LOAD" button wil take you through the different items in the groups and the "TEAR" button will change the settings on the different items. To save the new settings hold down the "SHIFT" button and press the "SEL/MENU" button.
