Limited Warranty  
Kodak warrants Kodak consumer electronic products and accessories (“Products”), excluding batteries, to be  
free from malfunctions and defects in both materials and workmanship for one year from the date of purchase.  
Retain the original dated sales receipt. Proof of the date of purchase will be required with any request for  
warranty repair.  
Limited warranty coverage  
Warranty service is only available from within the country where the Products were originally purchased. You  
may be required to ship Products, at your expense, to the authorized service facility for the country where the  
Products were purchased. Kodak will repair or replace Products if they fail to function properly during the  
warranty period, subject to any conditions and/or limitations stated herein. Warranty service will include all  
labor as well as any necessary adjustments and/or replacement parts. If Kodak is unable to repair or replace a  
Product, Kodak will, at its option, refund the purchase price paid for the Product provided the Product has been  
returned to Kodak along with proof of the purchase price paid. Repair, replacement, or refund of the purchase  
price are the sole remedies under the warranty. If replacement parts are used in making repairs, those parts may  
be remanufactured, or may contain remanufactured materials. If it is necessary to replace the entire Product, it  
may be replaced with a remanufactured Product. Remanufactured Products, parts and materials are warranted  
for the remaining warranty term of the original Product, or 90 days after the date of repair or replacement,  
whichever is longer.  
Limitations  
This warranty does not cover circumstances beyond Kodak’s control. This warranty does not apply when failure  
is due to shipping damage, accident, alteration, modification, unauthorized service, misuse, abuse, use with  
incompatible accessories or attachments (such as third party ink or ink tanks), failure to follow Kodak’s  
operation, maintenance or repacking instructions, failure to use items supplied by Kodak (such as adapters and  
cables), or claims made after the duration of this warranty. Kodak makes no other express or implied  
warranty for this product, and disclaims the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness  
for a particular purpose. In the event that the exclusion of any implied warranty is ineffective under the law,  
the duration of the implied warranty will be one year from the purchase date or such longer period as required  
by law. The option of repair, replacement, or refund is Kodak’s only obligation. Kodak will not be responsible for  
any special, consequential or incidental damages resulting from the sale, purchase, or use of this product  
regardless of the cause. Liability for any special, consequential or incidental damages (including but not limited  
to loss of revenue or profit, downtime costs, loss of the use of the equipment, cost of substitute equipment,

the Product), regardless of cause or for breach of any written or implied warranty is expressly disclaimed.  
Your rights  
Some states or jurisdictions do not allow exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the  
above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. Some states or jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how  
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific  
rights, and you may have other rights which vary from state to state or by jurisdiction.  
Outside the United States and Canada  
In countries other than the United States and Canada, the terms and conditions of this warranty may be
