There are a few limitations and exclusions to this warranty 
(as well as some important details), which are described in 
the following section. 
The Legal Language 
Hewlett-Packard Limited Warranty 
Statement 
HP PRODUCT DURATION OF LIMITED WARRANTY 
Hardware — Parts and Labor: 1 Year 
Phone assistance to get you up-and-running: 30 days 
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. 
HP products may contain remanufactured parts equivalent to 
new in performance or may have been subject to 
incidental use. 
Warranty does not apply to defects resulting from 
(a) improper or inadequate maintenance or calibration, 
(b) software, interfacing, parts, or supplies not supplied by 
HP, (c) unauthorized modification or misuse, (d) computer 
viruses of any origin, (e) operation outside of the published 
environmental specifications for the product, (f) improper site 
preparation or maintenance, or (g) unplanned acts of 
nature, such as floods, tornadoes, lightning strikes, 
hurricanes, or earthquakes. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY 
LOCAL LAW, THE ABOVE WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE 
AND NO OTHER WARRANTY OR CONDITION, WHETHER 
WRITTEN OR ORAL, IS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED AND HP 
SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR 
CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY 
QUALITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 
Some countries/regions, states, or provinces do not allow 
limitations on the duration of an implied warranty, so the 
above limitation or exclusion might not apply to you. This 
warranty gives you specific legal rights and you might also 
have other rights that vary from country/region to 
country/region, state to state, or province to province. 
HP’s limited warranty is valid in any country/region or locality 
where HP has a support presence for this product and where 
HP has marketed this product. The level of warranty service you 
receive may vary according to local standards. HP will not alter 
form, fit, or function of the product to make it operate in a 
country/region for which it was never intended to function for 
legal or regulatory reasons. 
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, THE REMEDIES 
IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT ARE YOUR SOLE AND 
EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. EXCEPT AS INDICATED ABOVE, IN 
NO EVENT WILL HP OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR 
LOSS OF DATA OR FOR DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, 
CONSEQUENTIAL (INCLUDING LOST PROFIT OR DATA), 
OR OTHER DAMAGE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, 
TORT, OR OTHERWISE. Some countries/regions, states, or 
provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of 
incidental or consequential damages, so the above 
limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. 
THE WARRANTY TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS STATEMENT, 
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LAWFULLY PERMITTED, DO NOT 
EXCLUDE, RESTRICT, OR MODIFY AND ARE IN ADDITION 
TO THE MANDATORY STATUTORY RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO 
THE SALE OF THIS PRODUCT TO YOU.
