Canon requests removal of toner cartridge offered by TRIPLE BEST from Amazon.com

Canon Inc. today announced the filing of an infringement report with Amazon.com seeking removal of Amazon.com listings for certain toner cartridges sold by TRIPLE BEST for use in HP laser beam printers.

Canon’s infringement report alleged that certain model HP 126A toner cartridges sold by TRIPLE BEST via Amazon.com infringed Canon’s U.S. Patent No. 8,688,008. Canon requested that Amazon remove TRIPLE BEST listings for those products, namely, TRIPLE BEST listings with the Amazon Standard Identification Number (“ASIN”) B078JCRWFN.

At the time of this announcement, the above-identified TRIPLE BEST listing was no longer available on Amazon.com.

Throughout the development, sales and marketing process, Canon respects the intellectual property of other companies and individuals and expects others to similarly respect Canon’s intellectual property rights. Canon remains committed to pursuing legal enforcement against those who do not respect Canon’s intellectual property.
