Print to a network printer?

If Oki makes an Android printer driver app for your particular model of laser printer, then probably yes you can. But I think you'd need to check with Oki for that. One thing if the printer is too old, then they might not and it's computer only.
If the printer doesn't have wireless capability, I assume it's connected to your network via hardwired ethernet.

Might be a way, but I don't know any exact methods myself, I've never done printing with Android devices. I do most of my serious office stuff with a Mac. 
But I know there are general printing apps available for Android on the Play Store, which should support a range of laser and inkjet printers. And presumably your Oki laser is possibly compatible things like HP Laserjet, or Postscript or something reasonably common. The tablet would have to be on the same network as the printer I think, even though one is wireless and other is wired.

should do it for you... as long as the printer is on the network you should be able to get it going... you might need a pc to act as the midleman if that doesn't work
Check to see if the printer is cloud enabled.. there's a list you can get to from the above link
Then install the android app, for printing from your device
and here's a good walkthrough...

does what work? who are you talk about? there are a few suggestions here. i do not think having a custom rom should prevent you from connecting to a netwrok printer. what phone do you have?
That's either a Xiaomi device or a custom ROM. Yeh network printing should work.
