period, subject to any conditions and/or limitations stated herein. Warranty service
will include all labor as well as any necessary adjustments and/or replacement parts. If
Kodak is unable to repair or replace a Product, Kodak will, at its option, refund the
purchase price paid for the Product provided the Product has been returned to Kodak
along with proof of the purchase price paid. Repair, replacement, or refund of the
purchase price are the sole remedies under the warranty. If replacement parts are
used in making repairs, those parts may be remanufactured, or may contain
remanufactured materials. If it is necessary to replace the entire Product, it may be
replaced with a remanufactured Product. Remanufactured Products, parts and
materials are warranted for the remaining warranty term of the original Product, or 90
days after the date of repair or replacement, whichever is longer.
Limitations
This warranty does not cover circumstances beyond Kodak's control. This warranty

modification, unauthorized service, misuse, abuse, use with incompatible accessories
or attachments (such as third party ink or ink tanks), failure to follow Kodak's
operation, maintenance or repacking instructions, failure to use items supplied by
Kodak (such as adapters and cables), or claims made after the duration of this
warranty. Kodak makes no other express or implied warranty for this product. In the

Regulatory compliance
FCC compliance and advisory
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed or used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures: 1) reorient or relocate the
receiving antenna; 2) increase the separation between the equipment and the
receiver; 3) connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected; 4) consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for additional suggestions. Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment. Where shielded interface cables have been provided with the
product or specified additional components or accessories elsewhere defined to be
used with the installation of the product, they must be used in order to ensure
compliance with FCC regulation.
