parts or labor, provided that the purchaser shall be responsible for any transportation
cost. This warranty does not cover loss, damages from accident, or equipment or parts
which have been misused, altered, neglected, carelessly handled, used for purpose
other than those for which the printer was manufactured, or damages resulting from
unauthorized service.
1.1.1 REPAIRS
Repairs are warrantied for 90 days. If the original warranty is still in effect, repaired
units will remain under their original warranty or for 90 days from the date of service,
whichever is longer.

This warranty gives the purchaser specific legal rights, which may vary from state to
state.
In no event shall Graphic Products be liable for any incidental, special, indirect, or
consequential damages, whether resulting from the use, misuse, or inability to use
the product for any reason including defect. Some states do not allow the exclusion of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply in all areas.
