UNSPSC 44103122: Print bands

UNSPSC 44103122 Print bands (Commodity) covers consumable printer supplies and office materials that state and local governments procure routinely through IFBs and RFQs. In practice, "print bands" appears as a legacy or narrow commodity classification under which state and local buyers are tagging broader solicitations for toner cartridges, inkjet supplies, printer consumables, copy paper, and related office-output materials. The recent opportunities show education and county procurement offices as dominant buyers. Griffin Regional Educational Service Agency is requesting sealed bids for office supplies including printer consumables (toner and ink cartridges for Brother, Canon, Dell, HP, Lexmark, and Xerox) under IFB 2027 with bids due November 6, 2026. Cobb County School District is bidding Toshiba copier supplies under IFB B27021 (due September 10, 2026), and Northside Independent School District in San Antonio is consolidating two expiring printing-supply contracts into a new IFB for printing supplies and related services (due July 30, 2026). County governments across Georgia, Texas, Washington, and California are also active: Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners is requesting OEM toner and inkjet cartridges under competitive sealed bid with a one-year term plus four optional renewals (due September 14, 2026), and Collin County is bidding Lexmark printers and accessories (due June 25, 2026).

Geographic activity spans Georgia, Texas, California, Washington, Missouri, and New York, with school districts and county procurement offices appearing most frequently. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division issued a statewide IFB for Canon and Okidata toner cartridges and related supplies totaling 5,975 units on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (due August 20, 2026), available to multiple state agencies and entities. The State of California requested OEM toner cartridges under RFB-IS-26201054 (due July 24, 2026), and the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, solicited label printers and DYMO supplies (due May 22, 2026). Pierce County, Washington, requested district-wide copy paper purchase and delivery (due October 9, 2026). Rockwood School District (Missouri) issued an RFB for OEM toner cartridges on a five-year term commencing November 1, 2026 (proposals due May 22, 2026). The City of Philadelphia has posted multiple micro purchases for printer supplies—Brady Printer Accessories (due September 10, 2026) and Noritsu printer supplies, paper, and ink (due July 18, 2026)—and Rockland County requested furnish-and-deliver HP printers and multifunction devices on an as-needed basis (due August 25, 2026).
