Graphic Finishing Partners, LLC warrants each new Gfp Laminator is free from defects in material 
and  workmanship  for  a  period  of  one  (1)  year  from  the  date  of  installation.   A  machine  which 
proves defective in materials or workmanship within the warranty period will be repaired or, at 
Gfp’s option, replaced without charge.  This warranty is extended only to the original purchaser.  
 
This warranty is the only warranty made by Gfp and cannot be modified or amended.  Gfp’s sole 
and exclusive liability and the customer’s sole and exclusive remedy under this warranty shall be, 
at Gfp’s option, to repair or replace any such defective part or product.  These remedies are only 
available  if  Gfp’s  examination  of  the  product  discloses  to  Gfp’s  satisfaction  that  such  defects 
actually exist and were not caused by misuse, neglect, attempt to repair, unauthorized alteration or 
modification, incorrect line voltage, fire, accident, flood or other hazard. 
 
The warranty made herein is in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or implied, including any

damage  or  personal  injury  (unless  primarily  caused  by  its  negligence),  loss  of  profit,  or  other 
incidental or consequential damages arising out of the use or inability to use this equipment. 
 
This warranty specifically does not cover damage to laminating rollers caused by knives, razor 
blades, or any sharp objects or abrasives, or failure caused by adhesives, or damage caused by 
lifting, tilting and/or any attempt to position the machine other than rolling on the installed castors 
or feet on even surfaces, or improper use of the machine.  Warranty repair or replacement by Gfp 
or its authorized reseller(s) does not extend the warranty beyond the initial period from the date of 
installation.  Unauthorized customer alterations will void this warranty.
