Okidata Microline Ribbon Cartridges
The Microline range is Okidata's long-running impact printer family, and its ribbons are ordered by eight-digit part number rather than by printer model. This section covers 52104001, 52106001 and 52107001, all black ribbon cartridges that snap into place over the print head. The number is moulded into the cartridge shell, so the ribbon you are pulling out tells you exactly what to order next.
Getting Clean Print from a New Ribbon
Impact printers depend on an evenly wound ribbon, so it is worth turning the advance knob a few times after fitting to take up any slack before the first job. If new ribbons still print faintly, the print head gap setting or a worn platen is the more likely cause. Microline printers are often used for multipart forms, where a tired ribbon shows up on the carbon copies first.
