RETURNS

30 Day Return Window
- We accept returns and exchanges for products within 30 days from the date of purchase. A 30% restocking fee applies to all returns that are accepted under the conditions being met below. No returns will be accepted without the completion of the Return Authorization Form below and a Return Authorization number provided to you after your RA has been approved.

Labels & Ribbons
- Unopened labels and/or ribbon returns have a 30% restocking fee applicable. Label or ribbons rolls that have been opened will not be accepted for return. The two most common reasons for label/ribbon returns are ordering the wrong core size (3" versus 1") or not understanding the difference between thermal transfer and direct thermal. These are very simple mistakes to avoid and our team can easily help you out. Call, email or chat with us to ensure you are getting the correct label & ribbon from the start. Let's all avoid unnecessary returns together!

Printhead, Platen Roller & Belt Returns (consumable parts)
- Unopened box printhead returns have a 30% restocking fee applicable. Opened printhead boxes are subject to a 40% restocking fee. The most common reason for printhead return is ordering the incorrect DPI. If you are not sure what DPI printhead you need, simply call, email or chat with us to avoid ordering the incorrect printhead. We are here to help!

Defective printheads are covered by a manufacturer's 6 month (180 day) warranty. We can help you submit a defective printhead warranty claim, but keep in mind the warranty is between you and the manufacturer, not us. We are happy to help you with the warranty process though!

Printhead returns and exchanges are handled two ways after receiving a Return Authorization approval.
1.) The printhead is shipped back where it will be inspected. Once approved, a replacement printhead will be shipped out or a credit less restocking fee will apply.
2.) Instead of waiting through the inspection process for a replacement printhead, a new printhead would be ordered immediately and shipped out as a new order. (2 printheads paid for). The initial printhead is shipped back where it will then be inspected. If approved for acceptance, a credit will be issued back to the original printhead order less the restocking fee.
