1. Introduction
The Canon varioPRINT 135 Customer Expectations Document contains
information about the features and capabilities of the Canon varioPRINT 135. This
document should be used as part of the presale and preinstallation planning
processes to help clarify the requirements and responsibilities associated with
supporting, owning, and operating the Canon varioPRINT 135. It is also
recommended that those interested in purchasing the Canon varioPRINT 135 have,
and familiarize themselves with, the information in this document prior to making
their purchase.
Version 13 introduces new PRISMAsync R5.2 features and specifications.

varioPRINT 135 Customer Expectations Document
Version 13 varioPRINT 135 Customer Expectations Document Page 7
2. Product Overview
The Canon varioPRINT 135 brings the following capabilities to users in a
high-volume, light- to mid-production office environment, including commercial
printers, Print-for-Pay, graphic arts, and CRD customers:
•Printing/copying speeds of up to 135 ipm (images-per-minute)1 (Duplex, LTR,
and B&W (Black-and-White)).
•One integrated 15” full-color touch screen operator panel for the total system.
•One media catalog for the total system.
•Prints up to 600 x 2,400 dpi (dots per inch). This results in higher quality
characters, smoother corners, and cleaner gradient transitions. Text appears
sharper, and graphics appear clear and detailed.
•Copies up to 600 x 1,200 dpi.
•Scans in up to 600 x 600 dpi.
•Dust-free toner filling and no waste toner or ozone is generated.
•Vacuum feed, air separation, HeatXchange technology, ScreenPoint technology,
DirectPress technology, and EnergyLogic technology ensure reliable media
handling from up to 14 lb bond to 110 lb cover (50 to 300 g/m2).
•PRISMAsync controller offers optional scheduling feedback software for
production planning on the user interface for up to 8 hours.
•Optional operator’s attention light with adjustable “warn-ahead” timing.
•POC (Printer Operation Care) enables the operator to safely replace certain parts,
increasing uptime.
•Support for the optional SDD BLM300C Professional Booklet Maker and bulk
paper tray for A5 and Statement size paper.
IMPORTANT
•Friction fed finishing is not recommended due to the risk of slight toner abrasion.
•When running certain applications, which contain large areas of heavy coverage
of solid black toner, the user may observe some minor density changes from the
lead edge to trail edge on the print.
1 An image is defined as any text, graphics, or combination of the two, that fits onto one side of a single sheet (or
page) of LTR paper. Therefore, a printing/copying speed of approximately 135 ipm in the duplex mode equates
to approximately 67.5 ppm (pages-per-minute).

2.2 Offset Press vs. DirectPress
Offset printing is a technique that transfers (or “offsets”) an inked image from a
plate to a rubber blanket, and then to the printing surface. This enables the offset
press to maintain a consistent and high-image quality over long print runs because
the plate never touches the paper. The process requires a substantial investment
in equipment and setup expenses to achieve these results.
DirectPress converts digital data into a toner image in a single step. This compact
process is unaffected by temperature, static, or humidity. Therefore, it offers stable
performance and no deterioration in quality, while producing no ozone or waste
toner.
2 To scan in color, the optional Color Scan to File/E-Mail-C1 license must be installed.

2.4 PRISMAsync Controller
The Canon varioPRINT 135 is powered by the PRISMAsync Print Controller.
The PRISMAsync controller seamlessly enables the customer to streamline their
workflow and turn out more work in less time with the following features:
•Scheduler - Plan-ahead functionality for multiple jobs simultaneously. The
scheduler only shows an estimated job completion time, not the actual time it
may take to complete a job. The actual job completion time may vary, depending
on mixed media jobs, mixplex jobs, selected Finishing settings, and color
adjustments.
•One queue and job management for printing and copying.
•Streaming (spooling, RIPing, printing, and cleaning up simultaneously).
•Multi-tasking (print, copy, and scan).
•JDF (Job Definition Format) connector compatible.
•Multiple standard and customizable workflow profiles.
•Media-based operation with PRISMA media catalog.
•PRISMAsync controller settings are accessible via a Web browser using the
Settings Editor.
•DocBox (optional) for advanced job editing.
•Scan to SMB – enables users to scan to a shared network drive.
•Support for scanning to multiple e-mail addresses.
•Remote Manager
•Copy To
•Search Functions in Settings Editor
•Point & Print

2.4.1 New PRISMAsync R5.2 Features
The upgraded PRISMAsync controller has the following new features:
•Account Record per Month – This feature works with the current accounting
license, and enables the customer to download their account records in
monthly batches.
•PRISMAlytics Dashboard – Collects production data, such as engine use and
production output, directly from the engine, and presents a comprehensive
overview for the operator.
•IPP Release Job Command – Enables the customer to use the IPP
communication protocol to release jobs from the waiting queue.

2.4.2 PRISMAsync Standard Software
This section describes the standard software that comes with PRISMAsync R5.2.
•Scheduler
•DocBox
•Page Programmer
•Remote Viewer
•Remote Manager
•Multiple Queue
•Scan-to-File
•PostScript and PDF
•Streaming

for the PRISMAsync controller.
•E-Shredding
•Integrity Checker
•DPLink
•PRISMAprepare
•PRISMAdirect
•PRISMAlytics
IMPORTANT
E-Shredding has an impact on product performance. Depending on the
E-Shredding settings (number of overwrites) and the complexity of the
processed job data, an impact of 10% to 40% can be expected on product
performance.

varioPRINT 135 Customer Expectations Document
Version 13 varioPRINT 135 Customer Expectations Document Page 13
2.4.4 PRISMAsync System Backup
To backup the PRISMAsync system settings and licenses, a technician must use
the USB key included in the PRISMAsync box.
To backup the PRISMAsync’s firmware, a technician must use a specific type of
USB stick (available for purchase), as described in “USB Stick,” on p. 30.
The USB key and USB stick are the same types of physical hardware (flash
drives); however, they are both used for different purposes.
It is strongly recommended that technicians make a backup of the system after
installation, major system changes, or upgrades on the provided USB key.
The USB key must be left with the PRISMAsync controller.
2.4.5 PRISMAsync Firmware Updates
It is recommended that a technician use a specific kind of USB stick to upgrade
or restore the PRISMAsync controller firmware. The USB stick is NOT included in
the PRISMAsync box.
The USB stick used for upgrading the controller firmware must adhere to specific
technical requirements. For the USB stick’s technical requirements, see
“USB Stick,” on p. 30.
IMPORTANT
•Before downloading new firmware on the USB stick, the USB stick must be
formatted (all contents on the stick erased). During the firmware update
process, the current firmware on the PRISMAsync controller is erased and
replaced by the newly installed firmware. Therefore, it is highly recommended
that the technician backup the PRISMAsync system settings and licenses on
the USB key first. Then, after the firmware is updated (using the USB stick), the
installed licenses and settings can be restored using the USB key.
•Once the USB stick has been used to update firmware on the PRISMAsync
controller, it cannot be used again until the format process is repeated.
•The USB key and USB stick should not be used interchangeably.
•Using a USB stick that does not meet the specific technical requirements, may
result in an error when backing up the system settings or an error when
installing firmware.

The installation site must provide enough space for unrestricted operation,
maintenance work, and proper ventilation. Every attempt should be made to install
the equipment in a room that is large enough for the proper servicing and
maintenance of the equipment, and ensure that issues, such as ventilation, odors,
and dust accumulation are not a concern.
