PAPERFAXSerial 73793690 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: INTERNATIONAL PAPER COMPANY
Class 038 - Communication Services
Filed Apr 14, 1989
Registered Jan 02, 1990
The record shows that the mark “PAPERFAX” is no longer active; it was cancelled on November 21, 2014 because the registrant, INTERNATIONAL PAPER COMPANY, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark was once registered on the Principal Register for class 38, covering facsimile transmission of customer paper orders. Because the cancellation was due to a maintenance failure, the mark no longer carries enforceable rights, but the historical registration still indicates that the owner once claimed exclusive use of that wording for that specific service. A new user of a similar name would face the closest concern only if the new use involved facsimile transmission of paper orders or closely related communication services. The record shows no opposition, cancellation, or court actions, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is limited to the narrow area of facsimile paper order transmission, and the cancelled status means the mark no longer protects that wording.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
