June 11, 2025 — IAICON recently announced upgrades to its replacement HP CB435 toner cartridges as well as new Canon copier all-in-one consumables, with help from UK’s Therecycler.com (see below) However, IAICON is not authorized by either HP or Canon to produce or distribute these toner cartridges.
Both Canon and HP strictly protect their toner technologies under patent law. IAICON has not been publicly listed as a licensed manufacturer, raising serious concerns of IP infringement. Unauthorized toner products can lead to: Legal action from OEMs. Printer damage or malfunction. Voided warranties. Lower print quality with health and safety risks.
IAICON’s move will trigger legal enforcement from Canon or HP. The industry should remain alert and prioritize compliance to avoid supply chain disruptions.
