Canon obtains Preliminary Injunction against Ines Krämer, trading as "Büroartikelhandel DruFax" and "Faxland"

TOKYO, February 18, 2019—Canon Inc. today announced that the District Court Düsseldorf granted a preliminary injunction against Ines Krämer, doing business as "Büroartikelhandel DruFax" and "Faxland." The preliminary injunction is based on the infringement of the German portion of Canon's European patent EP 2 087 407 relating to a drum unit and a process cartridge. The preliminary injunction enjoins Ines Krämer from offering and distributing laser toner cartridges comprising a drum unit with a certain coupling member, via, for example, www.amazon.de and www.faxland.de. The infringing cartridges can replace the OEM cartridge models HP CE505A, HP CF280X and HP CE505X, which are compatible with HP laser beam printers. Furthermore, the preliminary injunction contains a claim for sequestration, so the infringing cartridges have been handed over to a bailiff until the matter is finally solved.
