I also have an Oki c6100 which I bought from Radio Shack- The printer itself works great but only in gray scale! I cant seem to get the color to work and I am being told and by reading posts that it needs a firm ware update to over-ride Radio Shacks limitation firm-ware.
Does anyone have any ideas, OKI does not have this on the website.
Thanks
Hey, I got it worked out so that it will print color. I called OKIDATA and initially they said they didn't know what to do and you needed to go back to Radio Shack. Then after talking to a supervisor the associate gave me the following instructions to download
1 - go to okidata.com
2 - click on "drivers" at the top of the page
3 - select "color page printer"
4 - select "C6100n"
5 - click "go"
6 - on the new page that comes up, on the left side of the page, click "Utilities"
7 - Scroll down to "English Job Accounting SERVER" and download the file (version 3.54)
8 - After the program is installed, open it and click the Printer Tab and "Add A Printer"
9 - Once the printer is found, it should show up in the list on the right of the screen.
10 - Right-click the printer and select "properties"
11 - Click the "User" tab - there should be in the status row something about "disabled color printing"
12 - Double click on the rows that say that and for each do the following:
1 - Click the "Use Restrictions Tab"
2 - De-select "print in mono" and "disable color printing"
Then when you've done that for each row, Click "ok"
And then you should be good to go. It worked on my computer right after that. I'm directly connected via USB and also connected wirelessly through our small network.
