OKI Electric developed its LED printhead technology for electro-photographic printing for reliable printing in various applications.

Laser systems rely on elaborate combinations of rotating mirrors and lenses that must remain in alignment through use. The laser scans from one end of a line to another, then zig-zags down to the next line.

LED technology uses a Light Emitting Diode printhead as a light source within the imaging device. Unlike laser systems, the LED printhead is solid-state and has no moving parts. The LED bar pulse-flashes across the entire page width and creates the image on the print drum as it moves down.

OKI also has a straight-line paper path that’s less susceptible to jams when feeding heavy stock, envelopes or labels.

LED technology is the future. We’re so sure of this that we guarantee the printhead of every OKI page printer for five full years  by far the longest warranty in the industry!
