VII.  Authorized Servicer Offerings 
The Authorized Servicer program enables Canon distribution product resellers to 
become authorized to service the Canon products they resell. Please refer to the 
Authorized Servicer Program Guide (found in the Download Center of the 
eSupport Center web site  for details to help an Authorized Servicer become 
familiar with Canon USA Inc.’s business processes and the resources that are 
available to assist the Authorized Servicer. 
Canon USA Systems &  Technical Support Division Business Relations and 
Administration departments are available to answer questions regarding this 
program. The Business Relations and Administration department can be reached 
by calling 631-330-5741. This telephone number is available Monday through 
Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Standard Time. 
A.  ASCR (Authorized Servicer Customer Registration) System 
The ASCR System is the process used to link the Customer’s product 
serial number to the Authorized Servicer; specific customer information is 
not required. To receive compensation for labor expended on a warranty 
service dispatch, your customer’s product serial numbers must be 
registered in Canon’s ASCR system. If your customer contacts Canon 
Information Technology Systems (CITS) during the warranty period, your 
dealership will be dispatched to the call.  
All calls dispatched by CITS must be closed out with CITS in order to 
qualify for labor compensation. To close out the service call, Section 2 of 
the Service Dispatch Form must be completed and e-mailed to 
isgservice@CITS.canon.com.  Canon USA will not provide labor 
compensation for any service not dispatched by CITS.  
If your customer contacts CITS on a post-warranty call, the customer will 
be referred to your dealership. A national independent service company will 
manage all unregistered units. 
To help ensure that Canon USA customers receive service support, 
regardless  of their location, Canon USA maintains a relationship with a 
national independent service company. Customers that require service 
support can call CITS via toll free access at 1-800-423-2366. In the event 
that an on-site service dispatch is necessary to restore the product to 
operation, CITS will dispatch the national independent service company. It 
is possible to dispatch the Authorized Servicer rather than the national 
independent service company; however, the Authorized Servicer must 
register their customer’s product with us beforehand. This is accomplished 
via ASCR. 
IMPORTANT: To submit a warranty claim for a defective part, please 
follow the e-Tag Warranty Claim form process on the Canon eSupport web 
site.
