OKI, a brand well-known for its information and communications (ICT) products including LED printers, is celebrating its 130th anniversary since its founding in 1881 in Tokyo.
In conjunction with the anniversary celebration, OKI Data, a subsidiary of OKI Electric Industry specialising in printer business, unveiled its B800 series A3 mono digital LED printers to the Malaysian market at a press conference held at the Palace of the Golden Horses in Seri Kembangan recently.
Founded by Kibataro Oki in 1881, OKI developed Japan’s first domestically produced telephone “Microsound” device, soon after the company’s establishment.
Among the products that were recognised in the history of Japan are Japan’s first automatic telephone exchange and first Japan-made transistor computer to use core memory, OKITAC-5090.

Through the years, OKI has pioneered some of the world-leading products such as the world’s first LED printer in 1981, cash-recycling automated teller machines (ATMs) in 1982, Japan’s first Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) system in 1996 and industry’s first Microsoft.NET-compliant IP telephony server in 2004.
In sharing OKI’s achievements, OKI Data Corporation deputy president Masahiko Morioka said: “The success of OKI lies in the ‘enterprising spirit’ that has been nurtured and passed down throughout the company’s long history.
“We see ourselves as a company that supports social infrastructural development in both Japan and overseas.
“OKI recognises and incorporates the needs of the market into the development of products that satisfy customers and contribute to the development of information society,” said Morioka.
OKI’s worldwide businesses stretches across the field of solutions and services, telecom systems, social infrastructure systems, mechatronics systems and printers.
