About this file
This memorandum provides a limited source justification for a sole source procurement of Lexmark toner. The Defense Logistics Agency Distribution intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order to acquire Lexmark toner for use in Lexmark printers at the DLA Distribution Red River facility in Texarkana, Texas. Using non-Lexmark toner would void the warranty on the Lexmark machines. As the manufacturer of the printers, Lexmark is justified as the sole source as other toners would impact compatibility and functionality. The government estimate is for more than one quote to be received, with the contracting officer to make a fair and reasonable price determination at time of award.
