If these services are different, tell us whether you have sold any maintenance service agreements upon the initial sale of your printers and clarify whether you allocate the arrangement fee to these separate elements and how you determine the fair values for each element. If these services are similar, tell us your consideration of whether these services represent a separate element bundled with the sale of your printers.
