HOW IT WORKS

The most versatile desktop label roll printer.

The OKI Pro takes 8-inch diameter rolls of our factory direct pre-cut blank self-adhesive labels printing your various label artworks making labels on-demand for your product and packaging. You save a fortune by only needing blank labels in goods in, printing labels in exact quantities for each order, eliminating the risk of wasted labels if the product details should change, simply update the text or image on your computer and print away.

But even better for some of our users the OKI Pro prints on our even lower cost continuous uncut plain slit label rolls of media for then printing and cutting on the MINI-DIGI label cutter / finisher. Ideal for those needing many sizes or shapes.

Inside the OKI Pro there are adjustable media sensors to ensure accurate register of the print if for pre-cut labels using the label gaps, holes, notches or reverse side printed black marks to re-register. Or for continuous roll and finishing it's even easier just print away.

For the OKI Pro 1040 there is a one piece combined replaceable toner hopper drum station for each colour CYMK.  For the OKI Pro 1050 there is an extra + W white station so 4 colour process + White.

When printing the individual colours are imaged electrostatically onto each drum then combined to the image on the transfer belt.

Unlike other laser type printers and older designs the uniqueness of the OKI Pro triangular belt path separates the imaging drums a good distance from the straight through media stock path preventing any adhesive or media contacting the imaging drums.

The imaged colour toner transfers from the belt to the media just before being heat fused to the media surface by passing through the heated fuser rollers creating a high durability print.

A strong rotary cutter separates the media at the end of a run or can be set to cut off each label or non-adhesive tag or ticket.

We stock a range of winders, stripper winders and cutting options for the OKI Pro for making neat rolls, labels with a full bleed border and for digital cutting and finishing of labels in multiple shapes and sizes adding super flexibility, see below.

For the OKI Pro 1050 CYMK + White, it can additionally print white, no surprises the then. But the ability to print white transforms the capability of the OKI Pro 1050.  It is useful to print white onto clear say for applying to clear containers. Print white on any pre-coloured media like white onto black labels for a blackboard effect for example. Print white below colours to make them pop out. It's possible to print white on top illusion. This done by selecting one of various image filters available in the driver settings to get different white added effects some of which are pictured here. What's amazing is print black with say yellow lettering onto our silver media you get an amazing gold metallic finish on black background without needing any extra hot or cold foiling process.

REWINDER

The rewinder is the starter addition to wind neat rolls of printed labels or non-adhesive media for tags See Note 1) about printing full bleed 

STRIPPER / REWINDER

The stripper rewinder option is available for those wanting to print full bleed labels and strip the waste off as you wind. This is important to get full colour print right to the edges of the labels and if the stripped labels are to be automatically applied. See Note 2) about printing with waste on.

TABLE AND TABLE EXTENSION

The OKI Pro and its winder options can be accommodated on a standard office size desk or table. Or if preferred we stock a purpose made table available with position locators for the printer and winder or printer and stripper winder combination.

MINI-DIGI ® 

DIGITAL FINISHER / ANY SIZE OR SHAPE

You may like to use our factory direct low cost plain continuous roll in the OKI Pro to print your label images and with a simple 4mm black square mark along-side each image. Then use our MINI-DIGI ® digital cutter finisher to register and cut out the labels to any shape or size using the cut line already in the design. The system works without needing special tooling for each label shape, its all done by a digital steered blade. Even automatically apply a clear protective laminate to the labels just before cutting for extreme durability agaist caustic chemicals, oils and mechanical scuffs.  The MINI-DIGI takes a few moments to set going then runs hands free, you get on with other useful tasks, then collect your manufactured labels as finished rolls.

Note 1) printing full colour bleed. The OKI Pro can't print colour right to the edge of a label by a few mm (called bleed to edge). If you do want to print full bleed labels, we supply labels cut to size but with a waste border left on. You can print the design over the edges into the border. Works well as a low-cost method if the user is going to pop the labels out and hand apply them.

Note 2) printing full colour bleed waste on. If you want to print labels with full bleed and the user wants to auto apply the labels, then we make the labels with all the waste on, the shapes cut into the roll face and a black registration marks to the rear. The black marks enable you to register the design on each label. The waste border catches the spare ink without it going off the edge of the label. The labels can be rewound using the optional stripper winder, so that the waste is removed as you rewind the finished label roll.
