Okidata sent me the following service notice. They updated some printer models which require unique replacement parts when compared to the previous versions of the same models. Manufacturers usually change the model numbers to accommodate parts identification and compatibility.
This could get confusing...
ML600/ML300T/ML400 Serial & Network Card Compatibility Information
Oki Printing Solutions has recently released the ML600 Series and updated versions of existing printer models for the ML300Turbo Series and ML400 Series. The model names and equipment part numbers have not changed. However, there are changes to internal parts and also an updated RS-232 interface option for these products. In addition, there is a new NIC, part# 72008701 replacing part# 70046502, which will work in all versions of the printers. Please see the chart below for the serial # revision changes to determine compatibility of these two options for the newer version of printers.
If you have any questions please contact Oki Customer Service at 1-800-OKIDATA.
------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ----
The revisions referenced in the table below can be found on the S/N label of the printer.
See serial number example directly below, the last two characters determine the rev level, which determines compatibility.
Additional Note for Service Providers - Due to internal part changes to the latest revision printers, there are updated iIlustrated part manuals, based on the revision of the printer serial number. These include many new part numbers, and these new numbers are identifed on the RSPL with the latest revision as part of the description, see example below:
ML420 Example: PCB: EXB ASSY MAINTENANCE SPEC (REV. E0)
