Standard Warranty
PSC warrants to Customer that PSC's products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of two years from product shipment.
In order to obtain service under this Warranty, Customer must notify PSC of the claimed defect before the expiration of the Warranty period and obtain from PSC a return authorization number for return of the product to designated PSC service center. If PSC determines Customer’s claim is valid, PSC will repair or replace product without additional charge for parts and labor. Customer shall be responsible for packaging and shipping the product to the designated PSC service center, with shipping charges prepaid. PSC shall pay for the return of the product to Customer if the shipment is to a location within the country in which the PSC service center is located. Customer shall be responsible for paying all shipping charges, duties, taxes, and any other charges for products returned to any other locations.
Warranty is subject to the limitations and exclusions set forth below. Warranty set forth above is in lieu of any other warranties, expressed or implied, includ- ing merchantability and fitness.
Exclusions
Warranty coverage shall not apply to any claimed defect, failure or damage which PSC determines was caused by: improper use of product; failure to provide product maintenance, including but not limited to cleaning of the scan windows in accordance with product manual; installation or service of product by other than PSC representatives; use of product with any other instrument, equipment or apparatus; modification or alteration of product. External cables and replacement of scan windows due to scratching, stains or other degradation will not be covered under the Warranty. Products returned for service must be accompanied by the original external power supplies for performance of service.
Limitations of Liability
PSC repair or replacement of defective product as set forth above is the customer's sole and exclusive remedy on account of claims of breach of warranty or product defect. Under no circumstances will PSC be liable to customer or any third party for any lost profits, or any incidental, consequential indirect, special or contingent damages regardless of whether PSC had advance notice of the possibility of such damages.
Assignment
Customer may not assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations under Warranty except to a purchaser or transferee of product. No attempted assign- ment or transfer in violation of this provision shall be valid or binding upon PSC.
Risk of Loss

PSC shall assume risk of loss or damage for product in PSC’s possession or product being returned to Customer by PSC, except such loss or damage as may be caused by the negligence of Customer, its agents or employees. In the absence of specific written instructions for the return of product to Customer, PSC will select the carrier, but PSC shall not thereby assume any liability in connection with the return shipment.
