An Easy Sell — Xerox Service Agreements
What are they?
Xerox Service Agreements are a key part of
our exemplary service program, which in a
recent customer satisfaction survey rated
good to excellent overall by 97% of 
customers surveyed!
Think of a Xerox Service Agreement as a
promise…a promise that Xerox or an
Authorized Service Provider (ASP) will provide
Xerox customers with toll-free* telephone
support and on-site repair, if necessary 
(including all parts, labor, and travel) — 
all in a timely,** professional manner.
* Toll-free support may not be available through some ASPs.
** Next Business Day Response time is standard for most U.S.
customers. Response times are determined by the distance of
the customer’s location from the nearest authorized Xerox service
location (0-75 miles = Next Business Day; 76-150 miles = Second
Business Day; 151+ miles = Third Business Day).
Easy resale options
The best Service Agreement for the cus-
tomer—and you—is the Extended On-Site
Service Agreement. Ideally, it is purchased at
the time of the printer sale; it must be 
purchased within the first 90 days of printer
ownership. The Extended On-Site Service
Agreement is available in one-, two-, or three-
year extensions.
After the first 90 days of printer ownership (or
at any time during the life of the printer), 
customers have the option to buy an Annual 
On-Site Service Agreement. This Agreement
offers essentially the same benefits as the 
Extended On-Site Service Agreement but
at a premium price because of its delayed 
purchase.
