Customizing the Installation
This document tells you how to perform a typical installation,
using the default settings of the printer.
These default settings do not need to be adjusted as part of a
standard installation. However, you may need to adjust settings
to fit your requirements.
Some settings you may need to adjust as part of your installation
are:
•
Top of Form (TOF)
•
Paper Path
•
Printhead Gap
To adjust these settings, refer to the appropriate subsection of
“Using Your Printer” in the Printer User’s Guide.
User’s Guides
The Printer User’s Guide and the OkiLAN 6120e User’s Guide
are provided as Adobe Acrobat files on the CD shipped with your
printer. You can view the files using Adobe Acrobat Reader. If
you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader, it is also provided on the
CD or you may download it from the Adobe web site,
www.adobe.com.
Documentation is also available via Oki Data’s web site,

Top of Form (TOF)
!
If you turn the platen knob when the printer is turned on,
you will cause the Top of Form to mis-align. Always turn
the printer off before turning the platen knob!

The factory default setting for the Top of Form (where the
printing should begin) is one inch down from the top of
the page.

Your software may print the first line of print above or
below where TOF is set. You may need to adjust the TOF
to meet your software’s needs. Use the procedures in the
Printer User’s Guide, “Using Your Printer, Top of Form,
Forms Tear-Off Status (ON or OFF).”

The first line prints at the red line of the plastic paper
shield (1) on the printhead.

of Form, Forms Tear-Off ON (Step A).”
