Loading the Manual Feeder  
The manual feeder is located at the front of your printer and can only feed one sheet of  
print media at a time. You can use the manual feeder to make quick runs of paper types or  
sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper tray.  
To load the manual feeder:  
1
Place a sheet of the selected print media, print side facing up, at the center of the  
manual feeder, but only to the point where its leading edge can contact the paper  
guides. Otherwise, the printer will engage the print media too soon and skew the print  
job.  
2
Adjust the paper guides to the print media’s width.  
3
Hold both sides of the print media close to the manual feeder and push it into the  
printer until it automatically engages.  
There is a brief pause between the time the printer engages the print media and when  
it feeds into the printer.  
NOTICE: Do not force the print media into the feeder. Forcing the media causes jams.  
Insert envelopes with the flap side face down and with the stamp area on the top  
right side.  
Hold transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side. Oils from your  
fingers that are deposited on the transparency can affect print quality.  
Loading Paper

Load letterhead face-up, with the top of the sheet entering the printer first.  
If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around.  
Using the Rear Exit  
The single-sheet rear exit provides a straight-through paper path to help reduce curling and  
potential jams. This is especially useful for specialty media, such as transparencies,  
envelopes, labels, card stock, or index cards.  
To use the rear exit, simply open the rear exit door. When the rear exit door is open, all print  
media comes out the rear exit. When closed, all media is sent to the output bin on top of  
the printer.

Print Media Guidelines  
Selecting the right paper or other media reduces printing problems. For best print quality,  
try a sample of the paper or specialty media you are considering before buying large  
quantities.  
CAUTION: Your product uses a printing process that heats the print media, and  
heat can cause certain media to release emissions. You must understand the  
section in your operating instructions that discusses the guidelines for selecting  
appropriate print media to avoid the possibility of harmful emissions.  
Use 20 lb (75 g/m2) xerographic paper.  
Use transparencies designed for laser printers.  
Use envelopes made from 24 lb (90 g/m2) bond paper. To reduce paper jams, do not  
use envelopes that:  
Have excessive curl  
Are stuck together  
Are damaged in any way  
Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing  
Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars  
Have postage stamps attached  
Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed position  
Do not use labels that have exposed adhesive on the sheets.  
Do not print a large number of labels continuously.  
Use card stock with a maximum weight of 163 g/m2 and a minimum size of  
76.2 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in.).

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

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

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.  
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.

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.  
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 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 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.  
May I transfer the limited warranty?  
Limited warranties on systems may be transferred if the current owner transfers ownership of the system and  
records the transfer with us. The limited warranty on Dell-branded memory may not be transferred. You may  
record your transfer by going to Dell's website:  
If you are an Individual Home Consumer, go to www.dell.com/us/en/dhs/topics/sbtopic_015_ccare.htm  
If you are a Home Office, Small, Medium, Large, or Global Commercial Customer, go to  
www.dell.com/us/en/biz/topics/sbtopic_ccare_nav_015_ccare.htm  
If you are a Government, Education, or Healthcare Customer, or an Individual Home Consumer who  
purchased through an employee purchase program, go to  
www.dell.com/us/en/pub/topics/sbtopic_015_ccare.htm  
If you do not have Internet access, call your customer care representative or call 1-800-624-9897.  
"Total Satisfaction" Return Policy (U.S. Only)  
We value our relationship with you and want to make sure that you're satisfied with your purchases. That's why we  
offer a "Total Satisfaction" return policy for most products that you, the end-user customer, purchase directly from  
Dell. Under this policy, you may return to Dell products that you purchased directly from Dell for a credit or a  
refund of the purchase price paid, less shipping and handling and applicable return fees as follows:

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.

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 us.

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 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.  
May I transfer the limited warranty?  
Limited warranties on systems may be transferred if the current owner transfers ownership of the system and  
records the transfer with us. The limited warranty on Dell-branded memory may not be transferred. You may  
record your transfer by going to Dell’s website:  
For Canada-purchased computers (in-country transfers) and to transfer from one customer to another, go to  
www.dell.ca/ca/en/gen/topics/segtopic_ccare_nav_013_ccare.htm  
For out-of-country transfers (outside of the original country of purchase), go to

"Total Satisfaction" Return Policy (Canada Only)  
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 packing slip or invoice for a refund or credit of the product purchase price. In either case, the refund or  
credit will not include any shipping and handling charges shown on your packing slip or invoice and will be subject  
to a fifteen percent (15%) restocking fee, unless otherwise prohibited by law. If you are an organization that bought  
the products under a 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 original packaging within five days of the date that Dell issues the Credit Return Authorization  
Number. You must also prepay shipping charges and insure the shipment or accept the risk of loss or damage  
during shipment. You may return 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.  
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.  
To qualify for refund or replacement, returned products must be in as-new condition, software products must be  
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.

they will be free from defects in material and workmanship for two years beginning on the date of invoice. If this

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

Ink and Toner Cartridges Limited Warranty (Latin America Only)  
Dell Inc. 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.

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.

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  
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,  
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A  
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, FOR THE SOFTWARE AND ALL ACCOMPANYING  
WRITTEN MATERIALS. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights; you may  
have others, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.  
IN NO EVENT SHALL DELL OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES  
WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF  
BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS  
INFORMATION, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF USE OR  
INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF  
SUCH DAMAGES. Because some jurisdictions do not allow an exclusion or limitation of  
liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.

U.S. Government Restricted Rights  
The software and documentation are "commercial items" as that term is defined at 48  
C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer  
software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212. Consistent with 48  
C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end users  
acquire the software and documentation with only those rights set forth herein.  
Contractor/manufacturer is Dell Products, L.P., One Dell Way, Round Rock, Texas 78682.  
General  
This license is effective until terminated. It will terminate upon the conditions set forth  
above or if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you agree that the  
Software and accompanying materials, and all copies thereof, will be destroyed. This  
agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas. Each provision of this agreement is  
severable. If a provision is found to be unenforceable, this finding does not affect the  
enforceability of the remaining provisions, terms, or conditions of this agreement. This  
agreement is binding on successors and assigns. Dell agrees and you agree to waive, to the  
maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial with respect to the Software or  
this agreement. Because this waiver may not be effective in some jurisdictions, this waiver  
may not apply to you. You acknowledge that you have read this agreement, that you  
understand it, that you agree to be bound by its terms, and that this is the complete and  
exclusive statement of the agreement between you and Dell regarding the Software.
