The OKIOFFICE 44 by Okidata is an outstanding multifunction device, offering superb printing along with solid copying, faxing, and scanning capabilities.
The OKIOFFICE’s 600dpi resolution produced sharp, evenly filled characters and perfectly smooth curves, even when printing 72-point type. The device has a 512KB memory and a bi-directional parallel interface for communication back to the PC. The paper tray holds 100 sheets.
Functions
Scan
The black-and-white scanner incorporates robust OCR capabilities, scans images and text simultaneously, and saves them together or separately at resolutions of 200 x 100, 200 x 200, or 200 x 400, with regular or dithered pixels.
The scanner is simple to operate and can be accessed directly from other applications. Scans can be dragged into WordScan for OCR processing. OKIOFFICE lets users create a scan just like the original or change type size, line spacing, justification, indentation, and margins.
Images can be saved in several formats, including versions of .TIF, .PCX, .PDA, Word, WordPerfect, WordStar, and XyWrite.
20-Sheet Input
For copying, scanning, and faxing, the paper tray holds 20 sheets. After loading the paper to be copied, the user presses the Copy key.
Copy
A single copy is produced after a slight pause. For multiple copies, the user enters the number desired then pushes the Copy key again. Up to 50 copies of a document can be made at a time.
Copy resolution ranges from 100 x 100 dpi for standard copies to 200 x 400 dpi for extra fine. Photo resolution is 200 x 200 dpi.
A manual paper feeder lets users change papers for selected copies. With the JetScan software, users can reduce, enlarge, rotate, and format copies to fit one, two, or four images per page.
Fax
The device transmits one fax page every six seconds and can be operated as a standalone or PC-driven fax machine. It includes 256KB fax memory (upgradeable to 1.25MB) and can store 10 one-touch numbers and 45 auto-dials.
Users can reject unsolicited faxes and, if the device is not connected to a PC, it can store incoming messages in memory when it’s out of paper.
When connected to a PC, faxes are stored on the hard drive. Faxes can be stored in memory and sent later, broadcast normally or as a broadcast relay, and sent confidentially so a password is required at the receiving end to access the message stored in memory.
