Do you offer on-site repairs or do I need to send my printer to you?
We provide on-site repairs throughout the UK. Our engineers come directly to your premises with the tools and common parts needed to fix most issues on the spot. This minimises your downtime and gets you back to printing faster.

Do you service printers still under manufacturer warranty?

Repairs & Maintenance
How much does a typical repair cost?
Repair costs vary depending on the fault and parts required. We provide transparent pricing with a fixed callout fee and a clear quote before any work begins. You'll always know the cost upfront - no surprises.
Do you guarantee your repair work?
Yes, all our repair work is guaranteed for 90 days from completion. If the same fault recurs within this period, we'll return and fix it at no additional charge. Parts installed by us carry either the manufacturer's warranty or our 90-day warranty, whichever is longer. Please note: parts purchased online and self-installed are not covered by warranty.
What if my printer can't be repaired?
If we determine that your printer is beyond economical repair, we'll explain the situation and provide honest advice on your options. This might include sourcing a replacement unit or upgrading to a newer model. We won't charge for repairs we can't complete.
Do you use genuine parts?
We use high-quality parts that meet or exceed OEM specifications. For critical components, we source genuine manufacturer parts. Parts installed by our engineers are covered by our warranty. Please note that parts purchased online and self-installed are not covered by warranty.
How long does a typical repair take?
Many common repairs can be completed in a single visit, typically within 1-2 hours. More complex repairs or those requiring ordered parts may take longer. We'll always give you a realistic timeframe and keep you informed throughout.
Can you repair printers that have been serviced by others?
Yes, we can work on printers regardless of who has serviced them previously. We'll assess the current condition and provide our honest evaluation of what's needed to get your printer running reliably.
