Who provides hardware support for campus Xerox copiers?

Tags xerox

The Xerox AltaLink devices that are part of the campus-wide fleet agreement are serviced directly by Xerox. There are two options for requesting service in the event of hardware problems.

Option 1: Use the Get Service Now Button

Press the Get Service Now button on the touch pad. This will automatically contact Xerox, but you will need to provide more information through the interface.

The first time you place a service call, using the Get Service Now button on the machine, you will be prompted to put in the department’s contact information. For example, the name, phone number and email address of the individual who is responsible for the photocopier within your department. Once this information is entered initially, it will be stored for future use.

After the contact information is logged, you will be required to input a description of the issue which you are experiencing with the machine and then hit submit. This will log a Service Request automatically.

A Service Technician from Xerox will contact the Department Contact, by phone or email, within 30 minutes of the Service Request being placed.

Option 2: Call: 1-800-275-9376

When placing a Service Request, please have the following information available:

  • Include the problem code, if you have one
  • The serial number of the device
  • The Xerox device Model number
  • The address where the device is located
  • The Department (person) contact information
