Limited Warranty
What Is Covered: Epson America, Inc. (“Epson”) warrants to the first end-user customer that the EPSON printer covered by this
limited warranty statement, if purchased and used in the United States or Canada, conforms to the manufacturer’s specifications
and will be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of one year from the date of original purchase. Epson
also warrants that the consumable ink cartridges enclosed with the printer will perform to the manufacturer’s specified usage,
which usage may expire before the expiration of the limited warranty for the EPSON printer. For warranty service, you must
provide proof of the date of original purchase.
What Epson Will Do To Correct Problems: Should your EPSON printer prove defective during the warranty period, please call
the EPSON Connection at (562) 276-7564 (U.S.) or (905) 709-2567 (Canada) for warranty repair instructions and return
authorization. An Epson service technician will provide telephone diagnostic service to determine whether the unit requires
repair. If service is needed during the warranty period, Epson will, at its option, exchange or repair the unit without charge for
parts or labor. If Epson authorizes an exchange for the defective unit, Epson will ship a replacement printer to you, freight
prepaid. You are responsible for securely packaging the defective printer and returning it to Epson within five (5) working days of
receipt of the replacement unit. You must provide a credit card number to secure the cost of the replacement printer in the event
that you fail to return the defective one. If your printer is being repaired, Epson will direct you to send your printer to Epson or
its authorized service center. The printer will be fixed and sent back to you. You are responsible for packing the printer and for
shipping costs to and from the Epson authorized service center. When warranty service involves the exchange of the product or of
a part, the item replaced becomes Epson property. The exchanged product or part may be new or refurbished to the Epson
standard of quality. Epson’s liability for replacement of the covered product will not exceed the original retail selling price of the
covered product. Exchange products or parts assume the remaining warranty period of your original product covered by this
limited warranty.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover: This warranty covers only normal use in the United States and Canada. This warranty
does not cover damage to the EPSON printer caused by parts or supplies not manufactured, distributed or certified by Epson.
This warranty does not cover ribbons, ink cartridges or third party parts, components, or peripheral devices added to the EPSON
product after its shipment from Epson, e.g., dealer or user-added boards or components. Epson is not responsible for warranty
service should the Epson label or logo or the rating label or serial number be removed or should the product fail to be properly
maintained or fail to function properly as a result of misuse, abuse, improper installation, neglect, improper shipping, damage
caused by disasters such as fire, flood, and lightning, improper electrical current, software problems, interaction with non-Epson
products, or service other than by an Epson Authorized Servicer. If a claimed defect cannot be identified or reproduced, you will
be held responsible for the costs incurred.
THE WARRANTY AND REMEDY PROVIDED ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME LAWS DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY, THEN ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED
WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD IDENTIFIED ABOVE. UNLESS STATED HEREIN,
ANY STATEMENT OR REPRESENTATIONS MADE BY ANY OTHER PERSON OR FIRM ARE VOID. EXCEPT AS
PROVIDED IN THIS WRITTEN WARRANTY, NEITHER EPSON AMERICA, INC. NOR ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE
LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, INCONVENIENCE, OR DAMAGE, INCLUDING DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, RESULTING FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE EPSON PRODUCT,
WHETHER RESULTING FROM BREACH OF WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.
In Canada, warranties include both warranties and conditions.
Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some jurisdictions do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may have other rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
