Understanding the paper type sensor  
Your printer has a paper type sensor that detects these paper types:  
Plain paper  
Coated paper

Transparencies  
If you load one of these paper types, the printer detects the paper type and  
automatically adjusts the paper type settings and print resolution.

Limited Warranties and Return Policy  
Dell-branded hardware products purchased in the U.S. or Canada come with either a 90-day, one-year, two-year,  
three-year, or four-year limited warranty. To determine which warranty came with your hardware product(s), see your  
packing slip or invoice. The following sections describe the limited warranties and return policy for the U.S., the limited  
warranties and return policy for Canada, and the manufacturer guarantee for Latin America and the Caribbean.  
Limited Warranty for Dell-Branded Hardware Products (U.S. Only)  
What is covered by this limited warranty?  
This limited warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship in your—our end-user customer's—Dell-branded  
hardware products, including Dell-branded peripheral products.  
What is not covered by this limited warranty?  
This limited warranty does not cover:  
Software, including the operating system and software added to the Dell-branded hardware products through our  
factory-integration system, third-party software, or the reloading of software  
Non-Dell-branded and Solution Provider Direct products and accessories  
Problems that result from:  
External causes such as accident, abuse, misuse, or problems with electrical power  
Servicing not authorized by Dell  
Usage that is not in accordance with product instructions  
Failure to follow the product instructions or failure to perform preventive maintenance  
Problems caused by using accessories, parts, or components not supplied by Dell  
Products with missing or altered service tags or serial numbers  
Products for which we have not received payment  
THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS  
WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (OR JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION). DELL'S  
RESPONSIBILITY FOR MALFUNCITONS AND DEFECTS IN HARDWARE IS LIMITED TO REPAIR AND  
REPLACEMENT AS SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT. ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED  
WARRANTIES FOR THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES  
AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE  
LIMITED IN TIME TO THE TERM OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD REFLECTED ON YOUR  
PACKING SLIP OR INVOICE. NO WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WILL APPLY AFTER  
THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD HAS EXPIRED. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON  
HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.  
WE DO NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY BEYOND THE REMEDIES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS LIMITED  
WARRANTY OR FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT  
LIMITATION, ANY LIABILTY FOR THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES, FOR  
PRODUCTS NOT BEING AVAILABLE FOR USE, OR FOR LOST DATA OR LOST SOFTWARE. OUR  
LIABILITY WILL BE NO MORE THAN THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE PRODUCT THAT IS THE  
SUBJECT OF A CLAIM. THIS IS THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT FOR WHICH WE ARE RESPONSIBLE.  
72  
Appendix  
     
SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR  
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.  
How long does this limited warranty last?  
This limited warranty lasts for the time period indicated on your packing slip or invoice, except that the limited warranty  
on Dell-branded batteries lasts only one year and the limited warranty on the lamps for Dell-branded projectors lasts  
only ninety days. The limited warranty begins on the date of the packing slip or invoice. The warranty period is not  
extended if we repair or replace a warranted product or any parts. Dell may change the availability of limited warranties,  
at its discretion, but any changes will not be retroactive.  
What do I do if I need warranty service?  
Before the warranty expires, please call us at the relevant number listed in the following table. Please also have your Dell  
service tag number or order number available.

What will Dell do?  
During the 90 days of the 90-day limited warranty and the first year of all other limited warranties: During the 90 days  
of the 90-day limited warranty and the first year of all other limited warranties, we will repair any Dell-branded hardware  
products returned to us that prove to be defective in materials or workmanship. If we are not able to repair the product,  
we will replace it with a comparable product that is new or refurbished.  
When you contact us, we will issue a Return Material Authorization Number for you to include with your return. You  
must return the products to us in their original or equivalent packaging, prepay shipping charges, and insure the  
shipment or accept the risk if the product is lost or damaged in shipment. We will return the repaired or replacement  
products to you. We will pay to ship the repaired or replaced products to you if you use an address in the United States  
(excluding Puerto Rico and U.S. possessions and territories). Otherwise, we will ship the product to you freight collect.  
If we determine that the product is not covered under this warranty, we will notify you and inform you of service  
alternatives that are available to you on a fee basis.  
Appendix  
73  
NOTE: Before you ship the product(s) to us, make sure to back up the data on the hard drive(s) and any other storage  
device(s) in the product(s). Remove any confidential, proprietary, or personal information and removable media such as  
floppy disks, CDs, or PC Cards. We are not responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary, or personal information;  
lost or corrupted data; or damaged or lost removable media.  
During the remaining years: For the remaining period of the limited warranty, we will replace any defective part with  
new or refurbished parts, if we agree that it needs to be replaced. When you contact us, we will require a valid credit card  
number at the time you request a replacement part, but we will not charge you for the replacement part as long as you  
return the original part to us within thirty days after we ship the replacement part to you. If we do not receive the  
original part within thirty days, we will charge to your credit card the then-current standard price for that part.  
We will pay to ship the part to you if you use an address in the United States (excluding Puerto Rico and U.S.  
possessions and territories). Otherwise, we will ship the part freight collect. We will also include a prepaid shipping  
container with each replacement part for your use in returning the replaced part to us.  
NOTE: Before you replace parts, make sure to back up the data on the hard drive(s) and any other storage device(s) in  
the product(s). We are not responsible for lost or corrupted data.  
What if I purchased a service contract?  
If your service contract is with Dell, service will be provided to you under the terms of the service agreement. Please refer  
to that contract for details on how to obtain service.  
If you purchased through us a service contract with one of our third-party service providers, please refer to that contract  
for details on how to obtain service.  
How will you fix my product?  
We use new and refurbished parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty repairs and in building  
replacement parts and systems. Refurbished parts and systems are parts or systems that have been returned to Dell,  
some of which were never used by a customer. All parts and systems are inspected and tested for quality. Replacement  
parts and systems are covered for the remaining period of the limited warranty for the product you bought. Dell owns all

What do I do if I am not satisfied?  
We pride ourselves on our great customer service. If you are not satisfied with the service you receive under this limited  
warranty, please let us know. We have found that the best way to resolve issues regarding our limited warranty is to work  
together. If, after those discussions, you are still not satisfied, we believe arbitration is the most expeditious way to  
resolve your concerns. Therefore, ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT,  
TORT, OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PREEXISTING, PRESENT, OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING  
STATUTORY, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) AGAINST DELL arising  
from or relating to this limited warranty, its interpretation, or the breach, termination, or validity thereof, the  
relationships which result from this limited warranty (including, to the full extent permitted by applicable law,  
relationships with third parties), Dell's advertising, or any related purchase SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY  
AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE NATIONAL ARBITRATION FORUM  
(NAF) under its Code of Procedure then in effect (available via the Internet at www.arb-forum.com/ or via telephone at  
1-800-474-2371). The arbitration will be limited solely to the dispute or controversy between you and Dell. Any award of  
the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of  
competent jurisdiction. Information may be obtained and claims may be filed with the NAF at P.O. Box 50191,  
Minneapolis, MN 55405. This provision applies only to individual home consumers and consumers who purchased  
through an employee purchase program. It does not apply to small, medium, large, and global commercial customers or  
government, education, and healthcare customers.

Number. You must also return the products to Dell in their original packaging, in as-new condition along with any

What will Dell do?  
During the 90 days of the 90-day limited warranty and the first year of all other limited warranties: During the 90 days  
of the 90-day limited warranty and the first year of all other limited warranties, we will repair any Dell-branded hardware  
products returned to us that prove to be defective in materials or workmanship. If we are not able to repair the product,  
we will replace it with a comparable product that is new or refurbished.  
When you contact us, we will issue a Return Material Authorization Number for you to include with your return. You  
must return the products to us in their original or equivalent packaging, prepay shipping charges, and insure the  
shipment or accept the risk if the product is lost or damaged in shipment. We will return the repaired or replacement  
products to you. We will pay to ship the repaired or replaced products to you if you use an address in Canada. Otherwise,  
we will ship the product to you freight collect.  
If we determine that the problem is not covered under this warranty, we will notify you and inform you of service  
alternatives that are available to you on a fee basis.  
NOTE: Before you ship the product(s) to us, make sure to back up the data on the hard drive(s) and any other storage  
device(s) in the product(s). Remove any confidential, proprietary or personal information, removable media, such as  
floppy disks, CDs, or PC Cards. We are not responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary or personal information;  
lost or corrupted data; or damaged or lost removable media.  
During the remaining years following the first year of all limited warranties: We will replace any defective part with  
new or refurbished parts, if we agree that it needs to be replaced. When you contact us, we will require a valid credit card  
number at the time you request a replacement part, but we will not charge you for the replacement part as long as you  
return the original part to us within thirty days after we ship the replacement part to you. If we do not receive the  
original part within thirty days, we will charge to your credit card the then-current standard price for that part.  
Appendix  
77  
We will pay to ship the part to you if you use an address in Canada. Otherwise, we will ship the part freight collect. We  
will also include a prepaid shipping container with each replacement part for your use in returning the replaced part to

NOTE: Before you replace parts, make sure to back up the data on the hard drive(s) and any other storage device(s) in  
the product(s). We are not responsible for lost or corrupted data.  
What if I purchased a service contract?  
If your service contract is with Dell, service will be provided to you under the terms of the service contract. Please refer  
to that contract for details on how to obtain service. Dell's service contracts can be found online at www.dell.ca or by  
calling Customer Care at 1-800-847-4096. If you purchased through us a service contract with one of our third-party  
service providers, please refer to that contract (mailed to you with your packing slip or invoice) for details on how to  
obtain service.  
How will you fix my product?  
We use new and refurbished parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty repairs and in building  
replacement parts and systems. Refurbished parts and systems are parts or systems that have been returned to Dell,  
some of which were never used by a customer. All parts and systems are inspected and tested for quality. Replacement  
parts and systems are covered for the remaining period of the limited warranty for the product you bought. Dell owns all  
parts removed from repaired products.  
What do I do if I am not satisfied?  
We pride ourselves on our great customer service. If you are not satisfied with the service you receive under this limited  
warranty, please let us know. We have found that the best way to resolve issues regarding our limited warranty is to work  
together. If, after those discussions, you are still not satisfied, we believe arbitration is the most expeditious way to

from or relating to this limited warranty, its interpretation, or the breach, termination or validity thereof, the  
relationships which result from this limited warranty (including, to the full extent permitted by applicable law,  
relationships with third parties), Dell's advertising, or any related purchase SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY  
AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE NATIONAL ARBITRATION FORUM

If you are an end-user customer who bought new products directly from Dell, you may return them to Dell up to 30 days  
after you receive them for a refund or credit of the product purchase price. If you are an end-user customer who bought  
reconditioned or refurbished products from Dell, you may return them to Dell within 14 days after the date on the

written agreement with Dell, the agreement may contain different terms for the return of products than specified by this  
policy.  
To return products, you must call Dell Customer Service at 1-800-847-4096 to receive a Credit Return Authorization  
Number. To expedite the process of your refund or credit, Dell expects you to return the products to Dell in their

software for a refund or credit only if the sealed package containing the floppy disk(s) or CD(s) is unopened. Returned  
products must be in as-new condition, and all of the manuals, floppy disk(s), CD(s), power cables, and other items  
included with a product must be returned with it. For customers who want to return, for refund or credit only, either  
application or operating system software that has been installed by Dell, the whole system must be returned, along with  
any media and documentation that may have been included in the original shipment.  
The "Total Satisfaction" Return Policy does not apply to Dell | EMC storage products. It also does not apply to products  
purchased through Dell's Software and Peripherals division. For those products, please instead refer to Dell's Software  
and Peripheral's then-current return policy (see the following section, "Dell Software and Peripherals (Canada Only)").  
Dell Software and Peripherals (Canada Only)  
Third-Party Software and Peripherals Products  
Similar to other resellers of software and peripherals, Dell does not warrant third-party products. Third-party software  
and peripheral products are covered by the warranties provided by the original manufacturer or publisher only.  
Third-party manufacturer warranties vary from product to product. Consult your product documentation for specific  
warranty information. More information may also be available from the manufacturer or publisher.  
While Dell offers a wide selection of software and peripheral products, we do not specifically test or guarantee that all of  
the products we offer work with any or all of the various models of Dell computers, nor do we test or guarantee all of the  
products we sell on the hundreds of different brands of computers available today. If you have questions about  
compatibility, we recommend and encourage you to contact the third-party software and peripheral product  
manufacturer or publisher directly.  
Dell-Branded Peripheral Products  
Dell does provide a limited warranty for new Dell-branded peripheral products (products for which Dell is listed as the  
manufacturer) such as monitors, batteries, memory, docking stations, and projectors). To determine which limited  
warranty applies to the product you purchased, see the Dell packing slip or invoice and/or the product documentation  
that accompanied your product. Descriptions of Dell's limited warranties are described in preceding sections.  
Appendix  
79  
   
Return Policy  
If you are an end-user customer who bought Dell Software and Peripherals products directly from a Dell company, you  
may return Dell Software and Peripherals products that are in as-new condition to Dell up to 30 days from the date on  
the packing slip or invoice for a refund of the product purchase price if already paid. This refund will not include any  
shipping and handling charges shown on your packing slip or invoice; you are responsible for those.  
To return products, you must call Dell Customer Service at 1-800-387-5759 to receive a Credit Return Authorization  
Number. You must ship the Dell Software and Peripherals products back to Dell in their original manufacturer's  
packaging (which must be in as-new condition), prepay shipping charges, and insure the shipment or accept the risk of  
loss or damage during shipment.

unopened, and all of the manuals, floppy disk(s), CD(s), power cables, and other items included with a product must be  
returned with it.

packed in original or equally protective packaging together with the details listed above and the return number provided  
to the end user by Dell.

be free from defects in material and workmanship for the life of the cartridge and that for genuine Dell-branded ink  
cartridges they will be free from defects in material and workmanship for two years beginning on the date of invoice. If  
this product proves defective in either material or workmanship, it will be replaced without charge during the limited  
warranty period if returned to Dell. You must first call our toll-free number to get your return authorization. In the U.S.,  
call 1-800-822-8965; in Canada, call 1-800-387-5757. If we are not able to replace the product because it has been  
discontinued or is not available, we will either replace it with a comparable product or reimburse you for the cartridge  
purchase cost, at Dell’s sole option. This limited warranty does not apply to ink or toner cartridges that have been  
refilled or improperly stored or due to problems resulting from misuse, abuse, accident, neglect, mishandling, incorrect  
environments, or wear from ordinary use.  
THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS  
WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (OR JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION). DELLS RESPONSIBILITY  
FOR MALFUNCTIONS AND DEFECTS IN HARDWARE IS LIMITED TO REPLACEMENT AS SET FORTH IN  
THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT. FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS, EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES  
CONTAINED IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT, DELL DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND  
CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, FOR THE PRODUCT. FOR U.S.  
CUSTOMERS, ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES FOR THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT NOT  
LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR  
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE LIMITED IN TIME TO THE TERM OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. NO  
WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WILL APPLY AFTER THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD

CONDITION LASTS, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY COVERAGE  
TERMINATES IF YOU SELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS PRODUCT TO ANOTHER PARTY.  
DELL DOES NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY BEYOND THE REMEDIES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS LIMITED  
WARRANTY OR FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING,  
WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LIABILTY FOR THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES, FOR

SUBJECT OF A CLAIM. THIS IS THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT FOR WHICH DELL IS RESPONSIBLE.  
SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF SPECIAL,  
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION

Appendix  
   
Ink and Toner Cartridges Limited Warranty (Latin America Only)  
Dell Computer Corporation warrants to the original purchaser of genuine Dell-branded toner cartridges that the  
cartridges will be free from defects resulting from material or manufacturing process for the life of the cartridge. For the  
original purchaser of genuine Dell-branded ink cartridges, Dell warrants that the cartridges will be free from defects  
resulting from material or manufacturing process for one year beginning from the date of delivery.  
If this product presents defects resulting from either material or manufacturing process, it will be replaced without  
charge during the limited warranty period if returned to Dell.  
In order to obtain the necessary information to enable the replacement, call the appropriate toll-free number. In Mexico,  
call 001-877-533-6230; in Puerto Rico, call 1-877-839-5123. In cases in which either the production of the cartridge has  
been discontinued or the cartridge is not available, Dell reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to choose between  
replacing it by a similar product or reimbursing you for the purchase cost.  
This limited warranty does not apply to ink or toner cartridges that have been refilled or to defects resulting from  
misuse, abuse, accident, negligence, mishandling, improper storage or exposure to inappropriate environments.  
Dell’s liability for the malfunction or defect of hardware after the period of the legal warranty (and specifically the  
period of the legal warranty of defective products stated in the consumer protections rules), is limited to either the  
substitution of the product or the reimbursement as stated above. This warranty coverage terminates if you sell or  
otherwise transfer this product to a third party.  
Dell does not accept any additional liability for patrimonial, emotional or any other kind of damage caused to the  
consumer and/or to a third party, which exceeds the established liability either in this limited warranty or in legal rules  
that may apply.  
Appendix  
83  
 
Dell Software License Agreement  
This is a legal agreement between you, the user, and Dell Products, L.P ("Dell"). This agreement  
covers all software that is distributed with the Dell product, for which there is no separate  
license agreement between you and the manufacturer or owner of the software (collectively the  
"Software"). By opening or breaking the seal on the Software packet(s), installing or  
downloading the Software, or using the Software that has been preloaded or is embedded in  
your computer, you agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. If you do not agree to  
these terms, promptly return all Software items (disks, written materials, and packaging) and  
delete any preloaded or embedded Software.  
You may use one copy of the Software on only one computer at a time. If you have multiple  
licenses for the Software, you may use as many copies at any time as you have licenses. "Use"  
means loading the Software in temporary memory or permanent storage on the computer.  
Installation on a network server solely for distribution to other computers is not "use" if (but  
only if) you have a separate license for each computer to which the Software is distributed. You  
must ensure that the number of persons using the Software installed on a network server does  
not exceed the number of licenses that you have. If the number of users of Software installed on  
a network server will exceed the number of licenses, you must purchase additional licenses until  
the number of licenses equals the number of users before allowing additional users to use the  
Software. If you are a commercial customer of Dell or a Dell affiliate, you hereby grant Dell, or  
an agent selected by Dell, the right to perform an audit of your use of the Software during  
normal business hours, you agree to cooperate with Dell in such audit, and you agree to provide  
Dell with all records reasonably related to your use of the Software. The audit will be limited to  
verification of your compliance with the terms of this agreement.  
The Software is protected by United States copyright laws and international treaties. You may  
make one copy of the Software solely for backup or archival purposes or transfer it to a single  
hard disk provided you keep the original solely for backup or archival purposes. You may not rent  
or lease the Software or copy the written materials accompanying the Software, but you may  
transfer the Software and all accompanying materials on a permanent basis if you retain no  
copies and the recipient agrees to the terms hereof. Any transfer must include the most recent  
update and all prior versions. You may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the  
Software. If the package accompanying your computer contains compact discs, 3.5" and/or 5.25"  
disks, you may use only the disks appropriate for your computer. You may not use the disks on  
another computer or network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user except as  
permitted by this agreement.  
84  
Appendix  
 
Limited Warranty  
Dell warrants that the Software disks will be free from defects in materials and workmanship  
under normal use for ninety (90) days from the date you receive them. This warranty is limited  
to you and is not transferable. Any implied warranties are limited to ninety (90) days from the  
date you receive the Software. Some jurisdictions do not allow limits on the duration of an  
implied warranty, so this limitation may not apply to you. The entire liability of Dell and its  
suppliers, and your exclusive remedy, shall be (a) return of the price paid for the Software or (b)  
replacement of any disk not meeting this warranty that is sent with a return authorization  
number to Dell, at your cost and risk. This limited warranty is void if any disk damage has  
resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, or service or modification by someone other than  
Dell. Any replacement disk is warranted for the remaining original warranty period or thirty (30)  
days, whichever is longer.  
Dell does NOT warrant that the functions of the Software will meet your requirements or that  
operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. You assume responsibility for  
selecting the Software to achieve your intended results and for the use and results obtained from  
the Software.  
DELL, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER
