I. Overview and Purpose
A. Overview
The Océ BLM550+ Booklet Maker developed by Watkiss Automation Ltd. is a
compact all-in-one booklet making system for the VarioPrint 6000+ Series

includes variable stitch leg length for varying booklet thickness.
The optional Book Stacker is a high capacity vertical booklet stacking system.
The book stacker has a stacking capacity of up to 36.6” (930 mm).
The solution allows the VarioPrint 6000+ production printers to create a full

VI. Servicing Notes
A. Power and Plug Requirements
Canon USA strongly suggests dedicated and properly grounded outlets be
provided for the BLM550+ Booklet Makers.
The BLM550+ Booklet Maker requires a dedicated NEMA 6-20 receptacle for
proper operation

IMPORTANT
•We recommend an additional standard 120 V/15 A outlet for service tools,
such as a laptop computer or vacuum that may be used when servicing or
configuring the machine.
•Use only dedicated and properly grounded outlets for the BLM550+ Booklet
Maker and accessories. Do not use extension cords. The ground
connection serves to provide the internal electronics with a reference
voltage. Faulty or poor ground sources will cause this reference voltage to
fall into a range that no longer serves as a reliable reference voltage. A
qualified electrician can measure and provide the ground source that the
BLM550+ Booklet Maker or any computer controlled office equipment
requires.
•Before installation, confirm that all necessary receptacles are available.
•Phase converters and step-down transformers are not supported.

E. Environmental Requirements
When installing the BLM550+ Booklet Maker and accessories, the
environmental conditions of the room where the machine is located should be
as described in the table below.
Table 14 – Optimal Environmental Conditions
Optimum Temperature Range Between 50°F (10°C) and 95°F (35°C)
Optimum Humidity Range Between 35% and 85% Relative Humidity
Atmospheric Pressure
(Storage and Transport)
up to 2,000m amsl
Noise (sound level) Maximum: 87 dB
Notes:
•In certain areas of the country and during certain times of the year, it may
be necessary to use a humidifier or dehumidifier to attain the proper
humidity levels for optimal machine performance. There is a risk that
productivity and paper feeding may be affected if the machine is operated
outside of these guidelines.
•The machine should not be installed in locations with significant shifts in
temperature or humidity. Areas containing water, or equipment that can
significantly alter room temperature or humidity, such as a heater, stove, or
portable air conditioner, should be avoided, unless proper environmental
control is available to achieve maximum productivity or quality capability.

G. Operator Maintenance
Periodic operator maintenance is required to ensure a specific level of machine
performance. The following tasks should be conducted by the customer
operator(s).
Table 19 – BLM550+ Operator Maintenance
Interval Task
Weekly
Clean the stitcher head (surface only)
(Tools to perform this maintenance are
included with the BLM550+).
Either of the following:
•Monthly
•When a new stich wire is installed
•When the message “OPERATOR
MAINTENANCE”10 is displayed
on the screen (approximately
every 20,000 stitches).
•Lubricate the stitch head (Note: this
should be performed even when the
machine is not in use)
•Lubricate the stitch head
•Clean the square spine forming clamp to
prevent stripes appearing on the side of
the booklet spine
•Clean the square spine form roller to
prevent lines appearing on the booklet
spine
•Clean trimming removals fingers
•Clean excess grease from the stitch
head
10 The “OPERATOR MAINTENANCE” message appears after 20,000 stitches and is accompanied by a repeated beeping from
the machine. After another 2,000 stitches the machine locks. Operator Maintenance (including the lubrication and cleaning) will
reset the counter and resume machine operation.
