China Ninestar Defies Ban, Illegal Toner Still Entering the U.S. in 2024!
Despite the U.S. government’s ban on Ninestar, implemented in June 2023, the company appears to have found ways to bypass these restrictions. Reports suggest that Ninestar is quietly partnering with affiliates not listed on the ban, including Chinamate, Ink-Tank, Kingway, Topjet, Green Project, Lexmark, and Static Control Components (SCC). There may be additional companies involved that have yet to be identified. These affiliates are facilitating the importation of banned toner products into the U.S. by air and by cargo.
U.S. Ban Ignored: Ninestar’s Continued Toner Imports
Ninestar’s toners are still being distributed to all U.S. wholesalers, one of the biggest in the US is Carolina Wholesale, this includes Arlington industries and all Cartridge World franchises. All these operations are tied to their owner, who seems to be fully aware of the illegality of his actions but is driven by greed. This may explain why Ninestar claims its earnings remain steady.Ninestar US Websites Operating Unhindered
Websites such as Ninestartechonline.com and Ggimage.com remain fully operational in the U.S., which may explain why Ninestar has not announced any layoffs domestically. Based in Chino, California, Ninestartechonline.com continues to distribute products across the country without any interruptions. A significant portion of the clone toners on the market comes from OEMs like Brother and HP, and there are even reports suggesting that Ninestar now produces more Brother toner than OEM Brother Industries itself.

Sources indicate that Ninestar has established direct communication with U.S. customs, allowing them to monitor shipments closely. Reports suggest that their shipments are often exempt from inspection, raising concerns about the enforcement of the ban.Amazon’s Ongoing Complicity with Ninestar
You might expect that revelations about slave labor would prompt Amazon to reconsider what they sell online. However, the reality is that the clone toner business remains too lucrative for them to intervene. Websites like GGimage.com continue to thrive on Amazon in the U.S., flooding the market with clone Ninestar toner and ink cartridges. Amazon’s fulfillment centers are still stocked with these products in massive quantities, showing no signs of halting their distribution. It’s crucial that Amazon be held accountable for these actions.Lack of Enforcement from Homeland Security, UFLPA and US Customs.
UFLPA and Homeland Security have not yet notified US customs to put the ban in place on Ninestar toners. It’s perplexing that UFLPA and Homeland Security have not coordinated with U.S. customs to enforce the ban on Ninestar’s toners. This oversight underscores a troubling disregard for U.S. laws. In light of these ongoing issues in 2024, Tonernews.com is calling on the industry to urge Homeland Security, UFLPA and US Customs to take action. It’s time to close this loophole and put an end to Ninestar’s operations in Chino, California, and all affiliated US wholesalers involved in this illegal scheme.Tonernews.com will be taking action! We’ll be sharing industry news, as well as contact information and forms for connecting with Homeland Security, UFLPA, and US Customs to enforce the ban. Your support is crucial in helping us stop the illegal importation of Ninestar toners into the U.S.
