CU Print: Vendor Escalation and Service Calls (Toshiba)

CU Print maintains a service contract with Toshiba for hardware maintenance and repair. When a printer issue cannot be resolved through first-level troubleshooting, the Print Technician opens a Toshiba service call. This article describes when and how to escalate.

This article applies to: CU Print

When to Escalate to Toshiba

Open a Toshiba service call when:

  • A hardware component has failed (fuser, drum unit, feed rollers, internal mechanism) and the device cannot be restored through standard PM procedures.

  • The device displays a persistent error code that is not cleared by a reboot, toner replacement, or paper reload.

How to Open a Toshiba Service Call

  1. Gather the following before calling or submitting online: device model, serial number, physical location (building and room), description of the issue, and any error codes displayed on the device panel.
  2. Based on the type of part/repair needed, submit to Toshiba according to these guidelines:
    1. Maintenance Part (fuser, imaging unit, etc): call 800-468-6744, press 1. Use the serial number for the device to locate, then have all parts shipped to 120 Maple. Coordinate with the technician for the pickup of the part.
    2. Error Code or Frequent Issue: Use the online form submission to report. Forward ticket email to cuprint@cornell.edu to generate a corresponding TDX ticket.
      1. If the printer location is card access only, supply the phone number of an on-site contact for the Toshiba technician to call to gain access to the space when needed.
  3. Record the Toshiba service call number in the corresponding TDX ticket. This is required for tracking and is audited.
  4. Confirm with the Toshiba representative about the timeline of repair.
