IX. Product Technical Support Offerings
A. Authorized Service Providers
Service is provided through a Canon Authorized Service Provider or through
a third-party service company managed by CITS. Canon authorized service
providers are expected to service the equipment they sell. Since these
products are also available through a sales-only distribution channel, the
serial number of the product must be registered to the service provider of
record through the ASCR System (refer to the ASCR (Authorized Servicer
Customer Registration) System (Page 19)in order to ensure that service is not
provided through a third-party service company.
B. Authorization Policy
To become service authorized and maintain authorization to service the
imagePROGRAF models, each service provider’s location must have at least
two (2) technicians who have been certified on the imagePROGRAF printer.
