Key Advantages

The OKIDATA OKI 62418901 provides excellent reliability in heavy-duty printing environments with durable dot matrix impact technology. Its ability to print through multi-part forms makes it ideal for invoicing and record-keeping processes. The printer supports wide paper formats, enhancing versatility for different office needs. It offers fast draft mode printing speeds to improve operational efficiency. Its mechanical design is rugged and built for continuous use over extended periods with minimal maintenance. The compatibility with both parallel and serial interfaces extends its usability across diverse hardware setups in office settings.

Limitations

As a dot matrix printer, the OKIDATA OKI 62418901 yields lower print quality compared to modern inkjet or laser printers, resulting in less sharp text and graphics. Printing noise can be considerably high during operation, which may disrupt quiet office environments. The speed, while adequate for impact technology, is slower than contemporary alternatives for graphic-rich documents. Color printing is limited or non-existent due to the monochrome nature of impact technology. The lack of advanced connectivity options such as USB or network interfaces may restrict integration into modern IT infrastructure. Supplies such as ribbons and tractor feed parts can be harder to source due to the model’s age and reduced production.
