Hi. Anyone know where I can find drivers for a Okidata Microline 182
printer? I am running WindowsXP Pro. Most of the driver sites haven't
been helpful.

Thanks for your help.

You'll need to use an emulation mode with one of the standard drivers.
At <http://my.okidata.com/PP-ML182.nsf?opendatabase>, under Win2000 it
says:
"Windows software drivers are compatible and should work fine with
your application.
"Most of the dot matrix printers have compatible drivers within the
Operating System, and Oki Data printers emulate one or a combination
of the Epson, IBM or Microline printers. To determine your current
printer emulation, print the printer self test or menu (check User
Manual for more details). This will provide the internal emulation of
the printer. Match the printer emulation by selecting the compatible
printer driver from your Operating System. The printer emulation must
MATCH the operating system selection."
