Owner of a Hewlett Packard printer?

If you own a HP laserjet printer and have been frustrated that you can't use all the toner, even though you paid for it, you might be interested in this lawsuit against Hewlett Packard. Contact the court and let your voice be heard:

NOTICE OF SETTLEMENT


If you purchased an HP color LaserJet printer, you may benefit from a Proposed Class Action Settlement.



READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS ARE AFFECTED WHETHER YOU ACT OR DO NOT ACT. PLEASE CHECK THE SETTLEMENT WEBSITE AT www.HPLaserJetPrinterSettlement.com REGULARLY FOR UPDATES AND FURTHER DETAILS



The Federal Court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

• A Proposed Settlement has been reached in two class action lawsuits involving certain Hewlett-Packard Company ("HP") LaserJet printers. The first lawsuit (Baggett v. Hewlett-Packard Co., C.D. Cal. Case No. CV 07-0667 AG) claims that HP designed certain of its color LaserJet printers and print cartridges to prevent further printing after a certain amount of use even though toner remains in the print cartridge that could be used to print additional pages, that HP represented that certain print cartridges are "empty" and/or need to be replaced even though toner remains in the cartridge, that this technology prevented purchasers from using all of the allegedly useable toner in the print cartridge, from printing additional available pages and from using all of the printer’s functions (such as continued printing) until the print cartridge at issue is replaced, and that HP interfered with the right of purchasers to possess and use all of the toner in the HP print cartridges and/or to print additional pages. The second lawsuit (Young v. Hewlett-Packard Co., C.D. Cal. Case No. CV 09-00315 AG) involves different HP color LaserJet printers than those at issue in the Baggett lawsuit, but makes similar allegations and further alleges that HP failed properly to disclose that the relevant color LaserJet print cartridges include an "override" mechanism that permitted a user to continue printing as long as desired after any interruption or termination of printing caused by toner level in the print cartridge. HP denies all these claims. The Court (Honorable Andrew J. Guilford, United States District Court for the Central District of California) has ruled in favor of HP in each case, and each case has been appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. In order to avoid the expense and risks of continuing the lawsuit, the parties agreed to a Proposed Settlement.

• Your legal rights may be affected whether you act or do not act. Read this notice carefully.

• If you are eligible, the Proposed Settlement may provide an e-credit for future purchases of printers and printer supplies offered at www.shopping.hp.com. Any e-credits received as part of the settlement can only be used at www.shopping.hp.com.

• You are a Class Member if you purchased, leased, received as a gift or otherwise acquired in the United States an HP printer that is listed here . See questions 5 and 6 here for further information.

• You are not part of the class if you: (a) did not purchase, lease, receive as a gift or otherwise acquire a printer listed here ; (b) are an employee, director, officer, or agent of HP or its subsidiaries and affiliated companies, (c) are the Judge of the Court in which the cases are pending or part of his immediate family or staff. See question 7 below.

YOU MAY: DUE DATE:

• These deadlines may be moved, cancelled or otherwise modified, so please check the settlement website at www.HPLaserJetPrinterSettlement.com regularly for updates and further details.

• The Court still has to decide whether to approve the Proposed Settlement. Benefits will be provided only if the Court approves the Proposed Settlement and after any appeals are resolved.

Custom Labels

Let Your Products Make Their Mark With Custom Label Applicators If you take a look at the marketplace today, whatever industry it serves, there are hundreds or even thousands of product lines that are offered to consumers every day. You can make it go away by making your product stand out with custom label applicators. If you are in the manufacturing business, your one recurring nightmare is probably of your product being overlooked for somebody else's even though deep in your heart you believe you have the best one out there.

Mark of Excellence
Just like every business man out there, you want your product to be a house hold name. You want people to look at your company as a problem solver and one that can find the right solutions. How do you do this? Of course, the best way is to have a very good product. But if you have this bit covered then what you really need is for people to see that you actually have something that works. Maybe it's time you consider what custom label applicators can do to help you.

Labels are not only placed in products to provide necessary information but also to help attract the attention of buyers. Take a look at highly successful products in store shelves. The first thing you'll surely notice is how they are packaged. Food items are made to look tasty just by looking at them. Tools are packaged in heavy duty boxes with flashy labels that tell you they're ready for the job. You can't achieve this by having an excellent product alone. You need to mark it so people will know even before they've opened your product. It's the power of custom label applicators. You can show people just how dedicated you are in bringing them high quality products.

Design for Success
Companies who have succeeded in creating a brand that people believe in all have one thing in common; their label designs are memorable and easy to recognize. Is it coincidence? Hardly. Products that sell are designed meticulously including their labels. Companies spend millions of dollars every year to constantly update the look and feel of their products. Part of that money goes to buying custom label applicators that play a big part in establishing a mark of excellence.

What makes these labels stand out? First, they were designed by professionals who know the product very well. Familiarity is the key in making a label that matches what the product seeks to accomplish. Second, the label machines they use have the capacity to print brilliant designs.

Getting the best equipment money can buy is one of the most important investments a businessman like you will ever do. Custom label applicators don't come cheap but you won't regret getting them for your business.
