Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, you have the right to cancel a contract within 14 calendar days - starting from the day after you take delivery of the goods (a "cooling off" period). You have the right to cancel for any reason without penalty. You only have the right to inspect the goods to the same level you would in a retail premises. This 'cooling off' period does not allow for goods to be tested, opened, built or set up.

Once you have cancelled the contract, you have a legal "duty of care" to take good care of the goods. You must return the goods to us at your expense (unless goods are faulty) to the address below - we would advise that you use a recorded-delivery service for small items and an insured courier service for larger items. Please mark all parcels clearly with your returns number, and that they are well packed/protected we will NOT be held liable for any damage not reported before it is sent back.

Many printer manufacturers require direct contact from end users in respect of faulty product and will take the appropriate action. We of course accept that your contract is with us so please contact us in addition to the manufacturer.
