    Hello:

    It is not often people write emails or letters of praise but consider this one of the rare ones!
    I must say, ordering your product was about the easiest imaginable. Coupled with the fact that it arrived here basically “next day” I am thoroughly happy. To tell you the truth, I was expecting to have to go pay full retail for one black cartridge thinking that your’s would take at least a week to arrive but I was wrong, the order arrived before I could even go out to get one!
    Congrats people, I WILL tell all my friends and neighbours about you!

Lexmark sues 24 cartridge makers over patents

Posted on August 30, 2010 by kflack

Printer manufacturer Lexmark is suing replacement cartridge makers that it says are infringing on its patents.

The Lexington, Ky.-based company on Friday filed a patent infringement complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. Both suits accuse 24 companies that import replacement cartridges for Lexmark laser printers of violating 15 patents owned by Lexmark.

Both suits name the same 24 defendants. The ITC complaint–the now-standard venue for taking patent disputes against companies that import goods to the United States–asks that the defendants’ products be banned from import and sale in the States. The federal lawsuit asks for an injunction on sales of the disputed products, as well as monetary damages.

This is not the first time Lexmark has battled the aftermarket-printing industry. In 2003, Lexmark famously tried to invoke the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in an attempt to block a toner refill company from making replacement cartridges for Lexmark products.

Lexmark ultimately lost the case, but it hasn’t been alone in its fight against cartridge makers. Hewlett-Packard has been similarly protective of its patents on ink formulas, filing several lawsuits over the past few years against third-party cartridge refill makers.

Metawatch does one better than Online Printer Ink Company that Achieves 100 Fastest Growing Companies

Posted on August 30, 2010 by kflack

Dreams can come true," says Keith Ramirez, President and CEO of Inkjetmadness.com, Inc. a leading online inkjet and toner cartridge retailer.

In 2003, while struggling to support his family, Keith worked 60-hour weeks and worked two jobs to manage enough funds to begin an online printer ink company. While it seemed absolutely impossible at times, he managed to let perseverance and ambition carry him through tough economic times to build what is now one of the 100 fastest growing Hispanic-owned companies in the U.S. (Hispanic Business Magazine, 2010).

"Life is about failing and succeeding … with each failure success becomes more and more obtainable," says Keith.

A Puerto Rican-run business, has now served over half a million customers throughout the U.S. and Canada. The company is now celebrating eight years in business, an A+ Better Business Bureau rating and has recently been awarded a listing in INC 5000, Hispanic Business 500 and a prestigious listing on the Hispanic Business fastest growing 100 privately held companies.

They are thriving despite a poor economy by offering consumers and business owners alike an affordable online solution for inkjet and laser toner cartridges. Their printer ink prices save the consumer up to 92% OFF the Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP).

In a time of penny pinching and cutting corners, they invests the majority of  profit into further enhancing the customer’s experience through quality assurance tests, surveys, discount coupons and free shipping offers. Their goal is to become the most cost-effective solution to overpriced ink cartridges the Internet has to offer, and with the success they’ve had over the last few years, that goal is within reach.

Of course after reading this article, why is Metawatch posting an article about its competitors. Simple, Metawatch has always provided superior products to it customers as well throughout this same time period and we continue to provide Canadian a superior product& service with lower prices than the competition. Compare  Metawatch prices and service in Canada and we are certain you’ll be back time and time again.
