General Information

You can select one printer for printing most of your forms and another printer for reports.  Reports, receipts, and "white paper" forms can be printed on any printer.  However, dot matrix printers are required for printing multi-part forms & pre-printed forms.   Your forms should print using any IBM compatible dot matrix printer, but we only provide support for the Okidata 320.

All reports will first print to the screen, you can review the report on the screen, then either exit or send the report to the printer.

 

What is a "White Paper" contract?

 

When you add your Okidata 320 printer to the windows list of available printers, be sure to select Okidata as the Manufacturer, and Okidata ML 320-IBM as the printer.  It is important to be sure that you have the version that has the "-IBM" on the end of it.
