Limited warranty service

The warranty period starts on the date of original purchase as shown on the purchase receipt. The warranty period ends 12 months later.

To obtain warranty service you may be required to present proof of original purchase.

You are responsible for loss of, or damage to, a product in transit to the Remarketer or the designated location.

When warranty service involves the exchange of a product or part, the item replaced becomes the property of the Remarketer or Lexmark. The replacement may be a new or repaired item. The replacement item assumes the remaining warranty period of the original product.

Replacement is not available to you if the product you present for exchange is defaced, altered, in need of a repair not included in warranty service, damaged beyond repair, or if the product is not free of all legal obligations, restrictions, liens, and encumbrances.

Before you present this product for warranty service, remove all print cartridges, programs, data, and removable storage media (unless directed otherwise by Lexmark).

For further explanation of your warranty alternatives and the nearest Lexmark authorized servicer in your area, contact Lexmark at (800) 332-4120, or on the World Wide Web at support.lexmark.com.
