Canon Requests More Removal from Amazon

Canon filed infringement reports with Amazon.com seeking the removal of Amazon.com listings for certain toner cartridges.

 

 

Canon’s infringement reports identified the product offerings shown in the table below and alleged that cartridges sold under these offerings infringe Canon’s U.S. Pat. No. 11,199,807. Canon requested that Amazon remove theses product offerings from Amazon.com.

At the time of this announcement, the product offerings listed above were no longer available on Amazon.com.

Canon engages in extensive research and development so that it can deliver innovative and valuable products to customers all over the world. Through its research and development efforts, Canon has obtained a large and robust portfolio of patents. In order to protect its many innovations, Canon enforces its patents against various toner cartridge designs that Canon believes infringe its patent rights.

While Canon had previously filed infringement reports with Amazon.com based on Canon’s U.S. Patent Nos. 8,280,278; 8,630,564; 8,682,215; and 8,688,008 against compatible cartridges having the same relevant structure as genuine HP toner cartridge models CF226, CF258, CF287 and CF289, these latest reports were based on Canon’s U.S. Pat. No. 11,199,807, which covers alternative designs.

Previously, Canon claimed it removed 853 listings from Amazon in Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, France, and The Netherlands, in the first quarter of 2023.

Since June 2018, Canon removed a total number of 31,116 listings from Amazon in Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, France, and The Netherlands. The listings offered third-party laser toner cartridges from vendors that Canon believes infringed one or more of European Patent No. 2 087 407, European Patent No. 2 137 577, European Patent No. 1 977 289, European Patent No. 3 470 931 and European Patent No. 3 270 230.

Also in the first quarter of 2023, Canon removed 53 listings from Amazon in Canada, Mexico, and the United States of America.

Since June 2018, Canon removed a total number of 3,561 listings from Amazon in Canada, Mexico, and the United States of America.
