Terms and Conditions
A. Plan Overview
During the Term of the Plan, Epson America, Inc. (“Epson”), or its designee,
will provide priority technical telephone support and other services described
herein (“Service”) for the Epson Product for which Customer has purchased a
Plan. Epson will use commercially reasonable efforts to Service the Product in
accordance with this Agreement.
Self-Service Printhead Replacement:
- Customer can purchase replacement printheads at a reduced cost.
- Customer will be trained to perform self-service replacement of printheads.
- Labor for printhead replacement is Customer’s responsibility.
- If Customer purchases a single Product with this Plan, one (1) printhead may be carried for self-service replacement. If Customer purchases two (2) or more Products and this service plan for each Product, up to a maximum number of four (4) total printheads may be carried for self-service replacement.
- Printheads have a limited parts warranty of 90 days from shipment date.
- Product must have Internet connectivity when it is set up and when Customer replaces a printhead. Epson recommends that the Product have a full-time Internet connection to allow Customer to access advanced printer-management features.
- Removed printheads must be returned to Epson. If Customer fails to return used printheads, Epson may refuse to extend future printhead discounts.
Epson is the obligor of this Plan and the party that is financially and
legally obligated to perform Service under this Agreement. Epson’s obligations
under this Plan are backed by the full faith and credit of Epson, with its
principal place of business located at 3131 Katella Ave., Los Alamitos, CA
90720, USA. Epson is the seller of this Plan, but if Customer purchased this
Plan from an Epson dealer, that party is the seller of this Plan and Customer
should keep the name and address of the dealer on file for Customer’s records.
B. Plan Fee
The fee for each Plan is payable in full before it will be activated. Customer
is responsible for any taxes arising from the Service provided under this
Agreement.
See Section F for cancellation details and the applicability of a refund.
C. Eligibility
This Plan is of fered to and intended only for Epson’s commercial customers.
It must be purchased with an Epson SureColor series printer.
Customer may purchase service plans covering up to five (5) years on a year-
to-year basis, or any combination thereof. Total coverage, including the
original limited warranty and service plan(s), for a single Product serial
number cannot exceed five (5) years from the initial Product purchase date.
This Plan is not available for purchase for products that exceed the Use
Limits which can be viewed on a status sheet printout and/or on the control
panel display. Customer must be prepared to submit proof of original purchase
of the Product.
Service coverage options may be available for Epson products that have
exceeded their Use Limits (as listed in the table at the end of this Plan) or
are older than five (5) years. Please contact Epson at
888-377-6611 to discuss alternative
service options. At Epson’s discretion, products that have exceeded their Use
Limits or are older than five (5) years, may become eligible for service
coverage if they pass an operational inspection (inspection fees apply).
Nonoperational products may become eligible for service coverage if they pass
an operational inspection after they have been repaired at Epson’s time and
material rates. Repair estimates are available at Epson’s time and materials
rates. Please contact Epson regarding eligibility questions.
Note: The product requires certain Epson software that Customer must
download to Customer’s computer(s) to operate the product. Additional services
are available that require the product to be connected to the Internet and
enabled to communicate with Epson servers. This will allow Epson to collect
and maintain usage information for purposes of facilitating service to
Customer and to improve the performance of Epson products. To use such Epson
services, Customer must authorize Epson to collect such information for these
purposes. Epson’s software will require Customer’s agreement to Epson’s End
User License Agreement. Certain Epson services will require Customer’s
agreement to Epson’s Terms of Use, which will govern Customer’s use of those
services. Please review Epson’s privacy policy provided to Customer to
understand how Epson collects, processes, uses, and stores certain information
relative to the Epson service and related software. Epson’s privacy policy is
available at https://epson.com/privacy-policy in the United States or
https://epson.ca/privacy-policy in Canada.
D. How to Obtain Service
- Call toll-free 888-377-6611 between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Pacific Time, Monday through Friday. Support hours are subject to change without notice.
- Customer will be asked to provide Epson with the model and serial number of the Product, the address where it is located, and a description of the problem.
E. Service and Limitations
Service described in this Agreement is separate from the limited warranty
provided at the time of the Product’s original purchase. This Agreement does
not modify the terms and conditions of that limited warranty.
-
What is Covered: At its sole discretion, Epson agrees to provide Service if the Product becomes inoperable or unable to perform according to Epson specifications due to defects in workmanship or materials during the Term of the Plan. Each Plan, if used in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico, provides coverage for either (i) the Term of the Plan, or (ii) until the Product has exceeded the Use Limits, whichever occurs first. No other coverage is included. This Agreement covers only hardware and mechanical failures related to the parts and components of the Product.
-
What Epson Will Do to Correct Problems: Should the Product become inoperable or unable to perform its function according to Epson specifications during the Term of the Plan and before it has reached the Use Limits (whichever occurs first), an Epson technician will work with Customer to resolve the problem and determine whether the Product requires hardware service. If so, at Epson’s sole discretion, on-site repair may be used, or Epson may elect to exchange the Product for one of equal or superior value.
-
Response Time: If Epson determines a covered hardware defect requires repair, and the Product is within Epson’s on-site service territory, an Epson-trained technician will repair the Product at Customer’s facility. Epson will usually dispatch repair parts and a technician to the Product’s location for the next business day if Epson determines repair is required prior to 1:00 p.m., Pacific Time. An adult must be available to accept the shipment and be present at all times while the technician is on-site. If Epson’s determination is made after 1:00 p.m., Pacific Time, dispatch may be delayed an additional day. Service may also be delayed if Customer’s facility is outside major metropolitan areas or is not located in the contiguous United States.
-
Service Parts: Epson’s shipment of service parts does not imply that replacement is required.
When service involves the exchange of parts, the items/parts replaced become the property of Epson. Replacement items assume the remaining Term of the Plan of the original Product.
Replacement parts may be new or remanufactured to Epson standards. -

a. Parts and labor for printhead replacement.
b. Damage caused by improper self-service or printhead replacement.
c. Any damage caused by misuse, abuse, improper installation, or neglect; improper packaging or shipping; disasters such as fire, flood, or lightning; improper electrical currents, software problems, or interaction with non-Epson products.

s. Any problem or damage from Customer’s failure to procure, install, or have maintenance performed on equipment or items not covered by this Agreement and on all non-Epson communications media and peripherals. This includes, without limitation, transmission lines, networks, and telephone equipment for data transmission; any electrical or mechanical work external to the Product; or maintenance, alterations, installation, deinstallation, and reinstallation of accessories, attachments, or other devices not furnished by Epson.
t. Any problem or damage from operator or user error.
u. Installation, deinstallation, or reinstallation of the Product.

c. Operate the Product under suitable conditions, in compliance with environmental requirements, and within specification as documented in the User’s Guide.
d. Customer may not record Service without Epson’s prior written consent.
Note:
If a claimed defect cannot be identified or reproduced, Customer will be held responsible for costs incurred. Customer agrees to be billed at Epson’s time and materials rates if excluded services are necessary to restore the Product to working condition and to pay such charges upon receipt of invoice. -
Charge for Matters Not Covered: Epson is obligated to provide Service only within the terms stated in this Plan. Any labor, parts, or expenses used or incurred by Epson to provide service beyond these terms shall be paid by Customer at Epson’s time and materials rates. Epson shall invoice Customer in such case and each invoice is due 30 days from receipt.
-
Unserviceable Product: If Epson, after a commercially reasonable effort, is unable to provide Service, Epson may, at its discretion, offer a pro rata refund of the Plan amount paid, or that same pro rata Plan purchase amount may be used toward the purchase of a new product or a service plan for a new product.
F. Term, Cancellation, and Refunds
The Term of the Plan shall begin on the expiration date of the Epson limited
warranty (“Plan Start Date”). Unless earlier terminated as provided herein,
the Plan shall expire on the one (1)-, three (3)-, or five (5)-year
anniversary of such Plan Start Date, depending on which Plan was purchased.
-
Customer may not assign or transfer this Agreement without the prior and express written consent of Epson. Please contact Epson (email customer.inquires@ea.epson.com or call 562-276-1305) to request consent. Any other purported transfer or assignment shall be void.
-
The right to cancel only applies to the original purchaser of this Plan and may not be transferred or assigned.
-
Customer may cancel this Plan by submitting a cancellation request in writing to the Epson dealer that sold Customer this Plan, or if this Plan was purchased directly from Epson to ATTN: Preferred Plus Cancellation, PO Box 93012, Long Beach, CA 90809-9941, USA.
a. Cancellation of Plans: If Customer’s written notice of cancellation is received on or before the thirtieth day after the Plan Start Date, Customer will receive a 100% refund minus the cost of any Service provided. Service costs shall be determined based on Epson’s time and materials rates. If a written notice of cancellation is not received by the thirtieth day following the Plan Start Date, there is no refund. -
Epson may also cancel this Plan. In that case, Epson shall provide Customer with a written notice no fewer than 30 days prior to such cancellation at Customer’s last known address, with the effective date for the cancellation and the reason for cancellation. Prior notice is not required if the reason for cancellation is nonpayment of the purchase price of the Plan, a material misrepresentation, or substantial breach of duties by Customer relating to the covered property or its use. If Epson cancels the Plan, Customer will receive a pro rata refund of what Customer paid for the Plan (for example, for a cancellation occurring halfway into the Term of the Plan, Customer will be refunded one-half the amount Customer paid).
-
If Customer purchased this Plan directly from Epson and cancels the Plan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and applicable law, Epson must remit a refund to Customer within 30 days. If Epson exceeds 30 days, then Epson is also required to pay Customer a penalty of 10% per month for the unpaid amount due and owed to Customer. The right to cancel and receive a refund and this penalty payment only applies to the original purchaser of this Plan and may not be transferred or assigned.
G. ARBITRATION
ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION, ENFORCEMENT, INTERPRETATION, OR

THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, SHALL BE DETERMINED BY ARBITRATION IN ORANGE
