Chicago (Sept 6, 2019)<\/em> \u2014 Recently, Canon and Brother have joined other OEMs in aggressively protecting their intellectual property (IP) rights against the multitude of clone products. Canon forced Amazon to remove over a thousand Amazon Standard Identification Numbers (ASINs) that were linked to toners that infringed on its patents. Following suit, Brother has urged the U.S. International Trade Commission to ban Chinese\u2060-\u2060made compatible cartridges that allegedly infringe on its toner cartridge technology. Clover wants partners to know its remanufactured products are always 100% IP\u2060-\u2060cleared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this legally charged environment, companies must perform due diligence on each and every partner whose products they represent, or their business could be at risk for lawsuits. This is a complicated topic that has long\u2060-\u2060term repercussions for office equipment resellers. Litigation is expensive, time\u2060-\u2060consuming, and can negatively impact company reputation \u2014 regardless of whether or not a company wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clover has addressed this issue head\u2060-\u2060on to assist its partners in navigating this volatile topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clover takes the issue of patent rights seriously, investing large sums to protect its partners from this type of risk. Dedicated engineering, legal, and R&D teams ensure Clover remanufactured cartridges and the components they contain are rigorously analyzed to ensure they\u2019re IP\u2060-\u2060cleared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eric Martin, president of Clover Imaging Group, states, \u201cClover is the manufacturer you can trust for legal, IP\u2060-\u2060cleared products. We employ a stringent patent clearance process that puts keeping our customers\u2019 reputations safe and their risk minimized at the forefront of our operations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clover currently holds 69 patents with 27 more pending. Its IP guarantee promises that all Clover imaging supplies are manufactured using non-infringing components. In fact, Clover is so confident in the integrity of its products that it guarantees resellers full indemnity against any OEM litigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving forward, Clover will continue to provide its partners with the highest-quality, IP\u2060-\u2060cleared products to keep their businesses safe and their reputations secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
