How many days will it take to receive my shipment?

My account is all inclusive. Why is it requiring me to enter a PO number?

Your account may be flagged to require a PO number on all chargeable service and supply orders (based upon your company’s requirements or the contract you have with UBS). Because of this flag, it will require something to be entered in the PO field of every order. This does not mean your order will be chargeable; only that we have been notified by your purchasing department that we must have a PO for chargeable orders. To bypass this requirement, you may enter your first name in the PO field and we will contact you if we do in fact need a PO number.

Why isn’t the date that the toner was ordered on my invoice?

The only date on your invoice is the date the invoice was printed. For information regarding your order, please contact service and supplies at 877-827-2679.

How does your Return Authorization (RMA) process work?

An RMA request can be placed for item(s) being returned by calling 877-827-2679 or emailing supplies@ubscopy.com. If the item is being returned due to an error on our end, or is a defective item, we will email you a return UPS shipping label. Once we receive the RMA item(s) back, a credit will be applied to the original invoice on your account. The RMA credit invoice will be mailed out to you. Once you receive the credited invoice, you can advise us as to where you would like the credit applied.

How can I check which toners are low on my machine?

Finding this information varies per machine type and model. Your owner and operator manual should contain this information. If you do not have the manual, this information can usually be found by searching for your machine’s make and model online. If you are still unsure, please call 877-827-2679 and we can connect you to your technician for additional assistance.

I entered my meter reading online yesterday, why am I getting another email notice?

Your meter reading was not uploaded to our system successfully. Make sure your browser is at least:

IE9 OR NEWER, FIREFOX 17 or NEWER, CHROME 23 OR NEWER.

Also verify that you are hitting the “SUBMIT” button at the top of the page after entering in your meter. If you continue to have this issue, please call our office.

When I enter the meter there is a “high meter” notification, what does that mean?

If you have a new machine without many copies on it, the system does not have any meter averages to base your reading on. Verify that you are entering the meters for the correct machine. After verifying, go ahead and enter the amount and click submit.

Where do I find the meter reading on my machine?

To obtain directions of how to read the meter on your machine, scroll to the bottom of your email notice. There are instructions according to the model.

Where is my machine ID #?

On the machine, look for a “United Business Systems” red,white and blue sticker. Make certain that the machine ID number on your email request matches the sticker ID # on your machine. If you have upgraded your machine for example and the email is asking for your OLD machine, please contact our office.

Why do I receive the message - No meter reading is due at this time.

There is a “billing window” period during which you can enter your meter. If the “billing window” has passed, the system will not accept your meter. Please call the office to resolve this issue.
