Multi Union agreed final settlement with Epson : Multi Union is pleased to announce that it has agreed to a final settlement with the Seiko Epson Group of the two US Court Actions filed in the District Court of Oregon in 2001 and 2005. In both actions, Seiko Epson alleges infringement of Epson’s US patents by certain Multi Union inkjet cartridges on sale within the United States. The terms of settlement prohibit Multi Union’s continued sale of certain Epson compatible inkjet cartridges in the United States. The settlement contains no restriction whatsoever on the sales outside the United States. The settlement came about after vigorous litigation in which Multi Union challenged Epson’s claims for patent infringement.

Multi Union defends patent infringement by Epson : Multi-Union Trading Company understands that Seiko Epson has filed a complaint alleging patent infringement against us and another U.S.-based company. Multi-Union believes that this latest filing is an effort by Seiko Epson to secure leverage in existing litigation between the parties. The complaint has not, however, been properly served. If Seiko Epson serves the complaint, Multi-Union will instruct its attorneys to analyze the allegations and underlying patents. We will then respond appropriately.
