Phone assistance to get you up-and-running:
HP warrants to you, the end-user customer, that HP
hardware, accessories, and supplies will be free from
defects in materials and workmanship after the date of
purchase, for the period specified above. If HP receives
notice of such defects during the warranty period, HP will, at
its option, either repair or replace products which prove to
be defective. Replacement products may be either new or
equivalent in performance to new.
HP warrants to you that HP software will not fail to execute
its programming instructions after the date of purchase, for
the period specified above, due to defects in material and
workmanship when properly installed and used. If HP
receives notice of such defects during the warranty period,
HP will replace software which does not execute its
programming instructions due to such defects.
HP does not warrant that the operation of HP products will
be uninterrupted or error free. If HP is unable, within a
reasonable time, to repair or replace any product to a
condition as warranted, you will be entitled to a refund of
the purchase price on a prorated basis upon prompt return
of the product.
