Printer Purchases

Printers can be purchased through the Bearkat Buy purchase process using the vendor of their choice. For ease, part numbers associated with the CDW-G supplier have been provided. Note, due to an issue between mPulse and Hewlett Packard (HP), HP printer orders utilizing CDW-G as the Supplier will need to be placed as a non-catalog purchase. Therefore, consistent with Purchasing policy, please work directly with a sales representative at CDW-G to obtain a quote to allow attachment to the requisition.

1. All printers are required to have a three-year, next business day hardware exchange warranty.
2. Printers are no longer coming with the necessary USB cable to connect to your computer. USB-A to USB-B cable is required for setups connecting to a desktop. A vendor part number has been suggested below, but can be purchased through any of our available vendors. IT@Sam is not responsible for providing USB-A to USB-B cables for your printer setup.
3. No TOA or Exception form is needed for printers that comply with the HP manufacturer and specification standards contained pre-approved list. Proceed with the requisition.  If you would like a printer that is not listed here, please follow the guidelines posted on the Technology Purchases page for items not listed as an approved exception.
4. Once your order arrives at your office, please open a Cherwell Request to schedule your printer installation. Please be sure to include the following:
   1. Type of printer (i.e. HP LaserJet M402dne)
   2. Networked or non-networked set-up
   3. Name and location for installation, if placing ticket for someone else
