Answer:

Diamond Sutra is the oldest japanese book to be printed.

Explanation:

The book "Diamond Sutra" in Japanese was printed in 868 AD.  The book is from the 'Perfection of Wisdom’ which is a Mahayana sutra. It talks about detachment, not clinging onto things and the act of non-abiding . It is one of the most persuasive "Mahayana sutras" in "East Asia". The Chinese version was found by Aurel Stein among the Dunhuang original copies in 1907. It is dated to 11 May 868.
