Thermal-Copier Warranty Terms
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonable foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure. Should you wish to make a claim under the Australian Consumer Law, please contact us using the details set out below.
- A major failure may include, but is not limited to, DOA (dead on arrival) operation.
- Acceptable quality examples may include, but are not limited to, broken glass or heat lamp on receipt due to transport damage, delivery marking/ indentations/ lumps/ dents on the product, damaged carriers, damaged carton or product labelling.
- Sufficient use of the product may be determined, but is not limited to, markings or discolouration on the internal rollers. As per Our Warranty the machine must be operated using only an authorised Carrier which protects and leaves no marks on the roller. Any markings or discolouration on the roller will have deemed the machine warranty expired through improper usage (inside the original warranty period) or sufficient use by the customer (outside the original warranty period) and the part is a consumable in need of replacement outside warranty.
- Claims for acceptable quality should be made BEFORE the product has been opened or used. Where a product has been used we may determine you have accepted the quality of the product and forgo the need for a replacement to be issued.
