MICROLINE®600 Series
The MICROLINE (ML) 600 Series from OKI
Printing Solutions: high-volume versatility in
forms and correspondence.
Whether your output is continuous multi-part
forms or fine business correspondence—or
combinations of both—you’ll find your solution
in the Dual 9-pin ML620/621 or the 24-pin
ML690/691 dot matrix printers.
They handle the printing needs of the most
demanding environments—including point-of-
sale, automation and utility applications such
as wholesale or retail sales counters, financial
departments, manufacturing and warehousing.
Yet they also produce letter-quality type and
high-resolution graphics for the office and
executive suite.
Unequaled performance –ML600 Series printers
have features that give them a strong edge over
the competition:
• Print speeds of up to 700 cps1
• An MTBF rating of 25,000 hours
• Ribbon life of up to 13 million characters2
And they offer other features that will improve
your working conditions, including:
• A convenient front paper path (tractor feed
and friction feed)
• Printing on forms up to 7 parts3
• Versatile connectivity and paper handling
Fast, with finesse – ML600 Series printers
run the gamut of paper types and envelopes
at lightning speed. Their rugged printheads
have a 400 million-character average life
expectancy, with powerful samarium magnets
and stored-energy pins that deliver precise,
sharp characters through to the last page of a
7-part form3.
