    This rugged and reliable forms printer combines versatile paper handling, fast throughput, and a small footprint.

    Reliable Performance Backed by a 3-Year Standard Warranty.
    The OKI® MICROLINE® 186 has a way with tough conditions. This compact forms printer actually thrives in industrial and point-of-sale environments because it's built to meet the renowned OKI standards for quality and Tank-Tough® reliability. As proof, the ML186 has a 20,000-hour MTBF rating, more than triple that of its closest competitor. Just put it to work and see for yourself how it delivers!

    Small package, big performance.
    For its size and weight, the ML186 is fast - 375 cps in SuperSpeed Draft mode. It also combines efficiency with economy. It's packed with advanced, field-proven technology, including a patented OKI closed-loop optical sensor that accurately positions the printhead, ensuring precise characters even on the last page of a 5-part form. The ML186 sports our rack-and-pinion drive system for dependable throughput and longer wear, a sturdy 200 million-character printhead that's designed to deliver output speeds 25% faster than its predecessor, and a 16-bit CPU for even quicker processing.

    Exceptional paper handling.
    The ML186 can print virtually any continuous or sheetfed form - including "difficult" media: its pinfeed platen moves card stock and labels effortlessly, along with multi-part forms up to 10" wide. A short, straight paper path reduces the possibility of media jamming. Continuous forms and single sheet paper (e.g. letterhead) feed smoothly through the rear or top. And the optional Pull Tractor Kit handles media from 3" to 9.5" wide.

    Unlike most other industrial and POS printers, the ML186 offers both bottom-feed and short-tear standard, so you can remove forms right at the perforation every time... which means the next form isn't wasted.

    All that and it's easy to use, too.
    Walk up to the ML186 and select your character sets, form length, and line feed setting - right from the operator panel. It couldn't be easier. For the next generation in forms-printing performance, specify the OKI ML186.

    Getting the job done. Easily.
    Whatever the need or the workload, the ML186 sets an impressive pace. Select any of four speed settings and get a quality product in less time. Fastest is the blazing 375 cps "Super Speed" Draft mode, followed by the 333 cps High-Speed Draft, 250 cps Utility, and the Near-Letter Quality of 62.5 cps.

    If you process your information over long distances, the ML186 has an option that can save time and expense: an OkiLAN® 10 Base-T Ethernet external print server that lets you connect over the Internet using TCP/IP protocols.

    The printer's small footprint makes it ideal for use in your system configuration. And the operator panel control of character sets, form length, and other frequently used functions makes the ML186 quite easy to use. (The printer has a "lockout" feature to prevent unauthorized setting changes.)

    OKI provides the edge in quality and reliability no competing printer can claim. It's the reassurance that comes with the backing of a full 3-year warranty and a network of authorized OKI Dealer Service Centers and Service Depots.

    Demand only the best. Put the rugged, affordable MICROLINE® 186 to work in the shop or behind the counter. Today.

    Does PrinterMalls accept purchase orders from Government / Educational Institutions?  Yes, absolutely and we make it quite easy to do so.

    Our Government/Educational discounts are significant as you can see.  If you need more than one printer write or call for a quote! The price is as displayed plus shipping. To compute shipping, put one of these printers in your shopping cart.  Continue on toward the checkout and it will compute the shipping charge.

    Your savings continue after the sale of the printer.  We sell the consumables and accessories for these printers at about 33 percent off of list prices!  Our toner prices are roughly what you would pay for clone, refilled toner and it's genuine, new product!  There are no additional government/educational discounts for consumables but quite frankly, no one on the planet beats our prices.

    There are certain guidelines that we require but they are easy.  For instance, we grant Net10 Terms to Government and Educational Institutions, which means we need to receive payment within 10 days of the purchase date. If your agency has to have other specific terms, contact us - we may be able to work with your requirements.  We normally do NOT hold the shipment of the printer - in stock items usually ship the day the order is placed and should arrive at your location in approximately 3 to 5 days to most places in the Lower 48 - many times in 1 or 2 days!  To qualify for the discount, you must (1) Order the items on our site or via phone then (2) fax a copy of the purchase order to us on government/school letterhead or other easily identified form and the printer must be shipped to a government/school address.  Your Government/Educational status will be verified, then your order processed. Again, you must order the items on our store or via phone so that you will get an invoice as we do not mail a hard copy invoice - you get it immediately upon order completion.

    We have made the ordering process as easy as possible.   Just order the item(s) on the website.  At checkout, choose 'Purchase Order' as the payment method and print a copy of the resulting invoice. Then fax a copy of your purchase order to us at (843)-293-2232.  That's it.  Your item(s) will ship that day if we receive the order by 12 p.m. EST (normal business days) or the next business day if after 12 p.m. You can also phone your order in to us if you wish. [contacts]

    If you'd rather order the item via telephone, that's no problem.  Call us at (877)-795-7746 and ask for Government Sales. You will need a valid Gov/Ed e-mail address so you can get your invoice and tracking information.

    Note to Military Purchasers:We know your procedures and can handle your order very fast!

    Note to nonprofit organizations:  This discount is available to certain nonprofit IRS 501C3 organizations also.  We will need you to fax us a copy of your 501C3 authorization form to (843)-293-2232 then just place your order online as normal, selecting 'Purchase Order' as the payment type.  Please contact us at if you have any problems.

    We hope you like our prices and appreciate the opportunity to do business with you.  If you have any questions please let us know at .


    NOTE: We are strict about these authorizations - we have to be or we will loose a significant amount of money. The manufacturer will not repay us unless we can absolutely prove your authorization. If you are not authorized for these special prices you will not be approved and your order will not be processed so please don't even try it. Unauthorized customers will just get frustrated if they do.
