PostScript upgrade
1 PostScript upgrade
The PostScript upgrade provides a PostScript interpreter, enabling you to send
PostScript and PDF files to the printer, and including PS Roman fonts.
NOTE: If installed in an HP Designjet T770 printer, the PostScript upgrade also
upgrades the printer’s memory from 2 GB to 8 GB.
This PostScript upgrade has been designed to be used with an HP Designjet only. It
may be damaged if you attempt to connect it to other devices.
However, its use is not restricted to one HP Designjet. After installing it in one, you
can uninstall it and then install it in another HP Designjet.

1. Ensure that the product is turned on. If your product is connected to your
computer with a USB cable, please disconnect the USB cable.

2 Hewlett-Packard Limited Warranty
Statement
HP product Limited Warranty Period
HP hardware product 1 year
HP software product 90 days
HP Limited Warranty
A. Extent of HP Limited Warranty
1. HP warrants to you, the end-user customer, that the HP hardware products will
be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal usage
during the Limited Warranty Period specified above. The Limited Warranty
Period starts on the date of purchase by you. Your dated sales or delivery
receipt, showing the date of purchase of the product, is your proof of
purchase date. You may be required to provide proof of purchase as a
condition of receiving warranty service.
2. For software products, HP’s Limited Warranty applies only to a failure to
execute programming instructions for the Limited Warranty Period specified
above, due to defects in materials and workmanship, when properly installed
and used on the device designated by HP. HP further warrants that HP-owned
standard software will substantially conform to specifications. HP does not
warrant that software will operate in hardware and software combinations
selected by you, or meet requirements specified by you.
3. HP does not warrant that the operation of any product will be uninterrupted
or error-free.
4. HP’s Limited Warranty covers only those defects that arise as a result of
normal use of the HP products, and does not cover any other problems,
including those that arise as a result of:
a. Improper or inadequate maintenance or calibration
b. Accessories, software, interfacing, paper, parts, ink or supplies not
provided or supported by HP
c. Operation outside the product's specifications
d. Improper site preparation or maintenance
e. Unauthorized modification or misuse
5. If HP or an HP-authorized service provider receives, during the applicable
warranty period, notice of a defect in any product covered by this HP Limited
4 Chapter 2 Hewlett-Packard Limited Warranty Statement ENWW
Warranty, HP shall, at its option, either repair or replace the product that
proved to be defective.
6. Customer self-repair warranty service. HP products are designed with
many Customer Self-Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and allow for
greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If, during the
diagnosis period, HP identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the
use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly to you for replacement. There
are two categories of CSR parts:
● Parts for which customer self-repair is mandatory. If you request HP to
replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of
this service.
HP Limited Warranty
● Parts for which customer self-repair is optional. These parts are also
designed for Customer Self-Repair. If, however, you require that HP
replace them for you, this may be done at no additional charge under
the type of warranty service designated for your product.
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be
shipped for nextbusiness-day delivery. Same-day or four-hour delivery may be
offered at an additional charge where geography permits. If assistance is
required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will
help you over the phone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a
replacement CSR part whether a defective part must be returned to HP. In
cases where it is required to return the defective part to HP, you must ship the
defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five (5)
business days. The defective part must be returned with the associated
documentation in the provided shipping material. Failure to return the
defective part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a
customer self-repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and
determine the courier/carrier to be used.
7. Should HP elect to replace or repair the defective product or part onsite, such
products will be serviced at the end-user customer's facility at no charge only
within designated local service travel areas. Outside designated local service
travel areas, warranty services will be performed at the end-user customer's
facility only upon prior agreement; you may be required to pay travel
expenses and other applicable expenses for such services. Contact your local
HP-authorized service provider for details on local travel areas.
8. You will make all reasonable efforts to support and cooperate with HP or an
HP-authorized service provider in resolving the problem remotely, for
example, starting and executing self-tests or diagnostic programs, providing
all necessary information, or performing basic remedial activities upon
request from HP or an HP-authorized service provider.
9. If HP is unable to repair or replace, as applicable, a defective product that is
covered by this Limited Warranty, HP shall, within a reasonable time after
ENWW A. Extent of HP Limited Warranty 5
being notified of the defect, refund the residual value of the product. The
residual value will be the purchase price paid to HP or to an HP Authorized
Reseller minus depreciation and amortization.
10. HP shall have no obligation to replace or refund until you return the defective
components, parts, supplies or hardware product to HP, including its
associated documentation. All components, parts, supplies or hardware
products removed under this Limited Warranty become the property of HP.
Notwithstanding the above mentioned, HP may waive the requirement for you
to return the defective product.
11. Unless otherwise stated, and to the extent permitted by local law, HP products
may be manufactured using new materials or new and used materials
HP Limited Warranty
equivalent to new in performance and reliability. HP may repair or replace
products (i) with equivalent products to the products being repaired or
replaced but which may have been subject to prior use; or (ii) with an
equivalent product to an original product that has been discontinued.
12. This Limited Warranty is valid in any country/region where HP or its
authorized service providers offer warranty services and HP has marketed the
HP product covered by this Limited Warranty. However, warranty service
availability and response time may vary from country/region to country/
region. HP will not alter form, fit, or function of the product to make it operate
in a country in which it was never intended to function for legal or regulatory
reasons. This HP Limited Warranty is subject to all applicable laws and
regulations including US and other national export and import laws and
regulations.
13. Contracts for additional services may be available from any authorized HP
service facility where the listed HP product is distributed by HP or an
authorized importer.
14. You are responsible for the security of your proprietary and confidential
information and for maintaining a procedure external to the HP product for
reconstruction of lost or altered files, data or programs. HP IS NOT
RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF ANY FILES STORED BY YOU
ON THE HP PRODUCT'S HARD DISK OR OTHER STORAGE DEVICES. HP IS
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RECOVERY OF LOST FILES OR DATA.
B. Limitations of warranty
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, NEITHER HP NOR ITS THIRD PARTY
SUPPLIERS MAKE ANY OTHER WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND,
WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY

to province in Canada and from country to country elsewhere in the world.
