In the USA, Canon Inc. filed an infringement report with Amazon.com seeking the removal of Amazon.com listings for certain toner cartridges sold by LYUSD for use in HP laser beam printers.

Canon’s infringement report alleged that certain model CF218A toner cartridges sold by LYUSD via Amazon.com infringed Canon’s U.S. Patent No 8,688,008. Canon requested that Amazon remove LYUSD’s listings for those products, namely, LYUSD’s listings with Amazon Standard Identification Numbers (“ASINs”) B07W1D5F5J, B086G9S8TN, B086DX98DK, B086DWFDFK, B086DV2FBK, B07VXTJCQC, B086GNKHPL, B086DVNGDL and B07WCPM9JM.

At the time of this announcement, the above-identified LYUSD listings were no longer available on Amazon.com.

Filing a Report Infringement Form with Amazon is a service offered by Amazon and doesn’t comprise any official finding of validity or infringement of a patent. The decision to take down a product is in the discretion of Amazon and is based on information provided by Canon.

Amazon informed the vendors about the takedown and the vendors may object to it.
