Hardware Warranty

The sole obligation of Zebra for defective Hardware is limited to repair or replacement (at Zebra's sole discretion) on a "return to service depot" basis with Zebra’s prior authorization. End-User Customer is responsible for shipment to Zebra and assumes all costs and risks associated with this transportation. Zebra shall be responsible for return shipment to End-User Customer, unless Zebra, in Zebra’s sole and absolute discretion, determines that the corresponding Hardware has no defect or is not under warranty, in which case End-User Customer shall be responsible also for return shipment. No charge will be made to End-User Customer for warranty repairs. Zebra shall not be responsible for any damage to or loss of any Software programs, data or removable data storage media, or the restoration or reinstallation of any Software programs or data. No technical support shall be provided during the Hardware warranty term other than to identify if a warranty repair is needed.

Warranty repair shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner. The repair shall conform in all material respects to the applicable Zebra published specification for a period of thirty (30) days following completion of the repair or until the end of the original warranty period, whichever is longer. End-User Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy in regard to warranty repair shall be to request Zebra to re-perform the non-conforming warranty repair.

Software “as is”

Software is licensed “as is” with no warranty. Notwithstanding the above, unless otherwise stated by Zebra in the Product warranty exceptions list or in a sales or license agreement between Zebra and End-User Customer, for restricted software and for licensed demoware, as identified at zebra.com, End-User Customer may, for a period of 90 days from when the instance of Software or Hardware are first shipped by Zebra or, with proof of purchase or license, from the purchase date whichever is later, obtain if available, releases, from https://www.zebra.com/us/en/support-downloads.html and technical support.
