outlined below. These specifications represent the minimum acceptable standards of quality,

construction, performance, and serviceability. By submitting a proposal, the Manufacturer

acknowledges and agrees that all items furnished under the resulting contract must meet or

exceed these specifications. Failure to supply products that conform to the required

specifications may result in product rejection, contract suspension, or contract termination at

the discretion of the State of Mississippi.

2.1. Item Requirements

The items covered under this solicitation include a full range of laser toner cartridges available

for purchase, capable of supporting the diverse operational needs of State agencies,

universities, and local governmental entities.

The vendor shall provide OEM and compatible toner cartridges for laser printers and

multifunction devices manufactured by, but not limited to, the following manufacturers: HP,

Brother, Canon, Lexmark, Dell, Xerox, Kyocera, Ricoh, and Sharp. This list is representative

and not exhaustive. Vendors shall be capable of supplying toner cartridges for any commonly

used printer models utilized by State of Mississippi agencies and governing authorities.

Agencies must be able to obtain toner cartridges as new, brand name units. The vendor can

offer, at no additional cost, a manufacturer-supported toner cartridge recycling or return

program (e.g., prepaid shipping labels, collection boxes, or pickup services). Participation by

authorized users is optional.

2.1.1. Performance

All laser toner cartridges must be delivered at the Contracting Agency’s convenience

so as not to interrupt its normal operations and no more than 30 days from PO

issuance. Toner may be provided at a large range of facilities. Each agency may have

more than one location in different regions of the State. Most agencies operate on a

Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM business hours schedule.

All toner cartridges provided under this contract shall perform in a manner consistent

with the performance standards of the original equipment manufacturer. Cartridges

shall produce clear, legible prints free from streaking, smearing, fading, toner leakage,

background shading, or other print quality defects. If a toner cartridge fails to perform

as required or produces unacceptable print quality, the contractor shall replace the

defective cartridge at no additional cost to the purchasing entity. Replacement

cartridges shall be provided promptly upon notification by the agency. The contractor

shall also be responsible for any damage caused to the printer as a result of a defective

cartridge.

Vendors that are awarded contracts from this solicitation will accept procurement card

payments from the authorized users on the contract, pursuant to the state’s

procurement card policy.

2.2. Applicability and Compliance

Commodities procured under these specifications shall not deviate from those originally

contracted for without written approval from the Office of Purchasing, Travel and Fleet

Management. These specifications shall, until revised or rescinded, apply to all future

purchases and contracts for the described commodities.

It is the intent of these specifications to obtain products that adequately meet user needs while

promoting fair competition. Prospective bidders must review the full Format and Guidelines

for Proposals, and notify the Office of Purchasing, Travel and Fleet Management of any issues

that may unnecessarily restrict competition.
