Terms and Conditions
Limited Warranty for Commercial Products
What Is Covered: Epson America, Inc. (“Epson”) warrants to the first end-user customer
that the EPSON Stylus Pro large format ink jet printer covered by this limited warranty
statement, if purchased and given normal use in the United States or Canada, will conform
to manufacturer’s specification 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 of
the Epson printer.
What Epson Will Do To Correct Problems: Should your large format printer prove
defective during the warranty period, please call the toll-free support line identified in this
booklet. This line will be answered between 6:00
through Friday, and between 7:00
Epson recognized holidays). Weekend hours are subject to change without notice. When
you call, please be prepared to provide your printer’s serial number, which is needed to
verify that the printer is still under warranty. (You may also need to provide proof of
purchase if warranty coverage cannot be verified by the serial number.) An Epson call
center technician will work with you to try to resolve the problem, and if your printer needs
repair, diagnose the issue and determine what parts may be required. If hardware repair is
required, Epson will arrange for the service of your printer.
On-Site Response: If the printer needs hardware repair and you are within Epson’s on-site
service territory, an Epson Authorized Servicer will be contacted to make the repair at your
facility. Epson will usually dispatch repair parts and a technician to your location for the next
business day if determination that repair is required occurs prior to 3:00
that determination is made after 3:00
second business day. An adult must be available to accept the parts delivery and be
present at all times while a technician is on-site. Epson’s shipment of service parts does not
imply that replacement is required. For both on-site and depot repair, parts may be new or
remanufactured to Epson standards. Repair parts (until installed) and replaced parts are the
property of Epson. Repair parts assume the remaining warranty period of the original
product.
AM and 4:00 PM Pacific Time on Saturday (excluding
PM, or during weekend hours, dispatch will be for the
AM and 8:00 PM Pacific Time, Monday
PM Pacific Time. If
Printer Exchange: Epson may, at its sole discretion, elect to replace a printer that for
whatever reason appears to require technical services beyond the capability of field repair.
Under these circumstances, Epson will replace the printer with the same or comparable
printer refurbished to the Epson standard of quality. (The replacement printer will not
include promotional materials, accessories, stands, documentation, manuals, software, or

cables.) The customer must be able to receive, unpack, and install the replacement printer,
and prepare the defective printer for return shipment by following the procedures described
in the user manual. The repacked defective printer will be picked up by a carrier designated
by Epson. If the defective product is not prepared for return within 7 business days of receipt
of the replacement printer, the customer will be invoiced at the prevailing manufacturer’s
suggested retail price for the replacement printer. The replacement printer assumes the
remaining warranty period of the original product.
Epson Depot Repair Response: If your location is outside Epson’s on-site service territory,
you must ship your printer to Epson for repair. Areas outside the on-site service territory
include, for example, U.S. territories and possessions. It is your responsibility to properly
prepare the printer for shipping as described in your documentation and securely package it
in its original container or equivalent. Epson will repair your printer within 7 business days
following receipt and then return it to you via best available method. It is your obligation to
re-assemble the repaired printer.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover:
1) Any damage caused by using unsuitable inks or ink delivery systems in the printer. Please
note that your printer is set up for use with a specific kind of ink. Use of the wrong kind of ink
(for example, use of dye ink in a printer set up for pigment ink) may cause damage not
covered by the warranty. Also, use of bulk ink delivery systems may cause damage not
covered by the warranty.
