Canon’s Legal Victory With Patent No. 10,691,063: A Blow to 29 China Counterfeit Toner Brands on Amazon.
Canon has successfully enforced its patent, U.S. Patent No. 10,691,063, against a multitude of third-party sellers on Amazon. The infringement report filed by Canon meticulously detailed how each of the listed companies—ranging from Cool Toner to HomieTech—allegedly violated the patent through the sale of counterfeit toner cartridges.

The patent in question pertains to specific features of toner cartridges that are integral to the operation of Canon’s laser printers. These features ensure compatibility, performance, and safety standards that customers expect from genuine Canon products. The infringing products not only undercut Canon’s market but also posed potential risks to consumers and their equipment.

Upon receiving the infringement report, Amazon took swift action, adhering to its own policies against counterfeit goods. The retail giant removed the listings of the infringing products, effectively halting the sale of these items on one of the world’s largest online marketplaces.

These mostly Chinese toner counterfeiter were named in this Amazon take down.
Epic Cartridges, US Easily Color, True Image, Colour shop, Aztech, Chessmo, Amstech, Captoner US, Inkalfa, Vinkjoy, Mandboy, Oxygentoner, Sfink, Duobey, Sujied, Eaxiuce, Yuaink ,Galada, Inkshop, Green-us, Annjetprint, Vision color, Infitoner, Fabulous ink, Vamtay, T-Shine, Voctoner, and HomieTech.

This decisive move by Canon underscores the company’s commitment to protecting its innovations and the integrity of its products. It also serves as a stern warning to counterfeiters that intellectual property rights will be vigorously defended.

The removal of these counterfeit products from Amazon not only safeguards consumers but also reinforces the value of authentic products. As the market for printer supplies is vast and often opaque, actions like these are crucial in maintaining trust and quality within the industry.

Canon’s victory is a testament to the effectiveness of legal frameworks in protecting patents and a reminder of the ongoing battle against counterfeit goods in the digital age.
