To return a product, you must first contact us to obtain a Return Authorisation (RA) number. Please read all the information on this page, then use the form below.

Please read all the information below regarding re-stocking fees, generic ink cartridges and firmware updates.
Address for returns
Once you have contacted us for a Return Authorisation Number you will be supplied the appropriate address to send your product.
Please be sure to package your product appropriately for transit.
It must be a a sturdy box so it is not damaged in anyway when it reaches our returns department. A soft satchel is not appropriate, by the time it reaches us, it is often crushed and the product damaged. If you product is damaged in transit your claim will be refused as we cannot send back damaged product to our supplier for credit.
Generic Ink Cartridges & Firmware Updates
Please be aware – we will not process refunds for compatible cartridges due to firmware updates.
Compatible cartridges are sold for current machine software / firmware / drivers at the time of purchase. If you have updated firmware / drivers etc it makes the compatible cartridge – ‘incompatible’ with your printer and is obviously beyond our control.
Ausjet brand compatible ink cartridges will incur a 30% restocking fee as charged to us by Ausjet – Unwanted Ausjet product must be returned within 14 days of purchase – otherwise credit will be refused by Ausjet. Ausjet generic ink cartridges must be returned to Ausjet by the customer after receiving a RMA number. Returns will only be processed for faulty product. If the returned cartridge is deemed ‘firmware update issue’ the return will be refused. Ausjet and Inkjet Online will not process refunds for firmware updates. Generic ink cartridges are sold for machines at time of purchase. If firmware is later updated / installed this makes the machine another model which the generic chip is not compatible with, and cannot be read.

There are many occasions where both toners and ink cartridges which are returned are found not to be faulty. Please ensure you have performed your printer recommended installation and printer head cleaning and/or alignment procedures before returning any goods to us.
As a rule we do not give credits for returns where the goods are over 3 months old (90 days) from the invoice date. This is due to manufacturers and suppliers restraints. Exceptions are made for some products where we have specific latitude given to us by the manufacturer of the product and our suppliers.
Laser / toner cartridge returns cannot and will not be processed without printed pages from the cartridge in question. There will be no exceptions as we are unable to obtain credits without these.
Most cartridges have to be over a minimum weight before we can accept them for return.
If the product has been refilled or tampered with in any way, the credit will be rejected.
All cartridges must be sealed and secured to ensure they do not leak or get lost in transit – leaking / damaged cartridges will not be eligible for credit / refund.
Return Authorisations are only valid for 14 days.
All returned product must be accompanied by proof of purchase and original packaging.
Once the product has been received by Inkjet Online it will be returned to our supplier for evaluation. The supplier must in turn send it back to the relevant manufacturer for evaluation and credit.
Inkjet Online will issue a refund / credit for the product, after receiving confirmation of the fault (if any) from our supplier.
If the product is found not to be faulty, the Courier Fee incurred by Inkjet Online will be charged to the customer and the product will be made available for collection for 14 days and then destroyed if not collected within that time frame.
All returned products are carefully examined and tested upon return for evidence of tampering and fraud. Serial numbers and expiry dates are cross referenced.
