- Just a comment on QMS printers- We just has occasion to request
- warranty service on our QMS PS-2220 (it had a loud, rattling noise
- when we received it). QMS National Service quoted rates of $110/hr
- for technician time plus $70/hr for travel time. This was for
- _warranty_ service! Parts were free, thank goodness.
-
- In all fairness, if we would ship the printer to the repair depot,
- they would fix it for free. Of course, the printer weighs about
- 100 pounds and would have to be shipped by truck.
-
- Just something to inquire about before you buy fifty printers.
