PAPERDIRECT

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “PAPERDIRECT” is a dead, cancelled service mark owned by TAYLOR DM BRANDS, INC., a Minnesota corporation. The mark was registered on January 23, 1996 for distributorship services in stationery products, office supplies, desktop publishing supplies, paper supplies, and computer software, and the cancellation occurred on August 7, 2026 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. Because the mark was on the Principal Register, the cancellation means the owner no longer has federal protection for those specific services. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only covers the listed services. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations after publication appear in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the cancellation on August 7, 2026. A company looking to use a similar name in the same or closely related services should note that the closest concern is the cancelled mark’s coverage of office‑related distributorship services, and that the mark’s cancellation removes the federal protection but does not erase all potential rights.
