Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately, we don't have a distributor in Argentina that sells our products locally. All of our products are manufactured and shipped from our locations within the United States.

When you tested the OKI C311 were you using one of our label materials? Or were you testing a vinyl material from a different vendor? Our laser compatible products should work fine in an LED printer, but we haven't tested performance in that specific model. Some adjustments may need to be made to the printer settings to ensure optimal printing results - typically setting the material type to glossy or labels will ensure the best print quality.

We have a couple different label materials that would likely be suitable for your application - weatherproof polyester laser and weatherproof vinyl laser. The weatherproof polyester laser material is available in a larger selection of sizes, but we do have a small selection of popular sizes available in our weatherproof vinyl laser as well. You can view information about both material types at the links below:

If you haven't tried our label material yet you can place a small sample order before placing a full order. The sample sheets are free, but there would be a charge for shipping to Argentina. We definitely recommend testing our material before placing a large order. You can enter a sample order by visiting the link below:

I hope this helps. If you need any additional information please just let us know.

I haven't had an opportunity to use the OKI C311 printer model, but I do have access to an OKI C711 that I use for testing purposes. The media type settings for the C711 are not available within the printer options in the print driver. You actually have to physically set the media type settings using the LCD screen on the printer. The media type setting is tucked away in the tray configurations menu. I can't speak for the C311, but the C711 definitely has a glossy media type available.

Even if there isn't a glossy material setting on the C311, setting the media type to any heavier option (heavy paper, card stock, labels, etc.) should theoretically increase the fusing temperature and provide better print quality and durability.

I hope this helps. If you need any additional information please just let us know.
