PAPERLAB

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “PAPERLAB” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 97896795, owned by Seiko Epson Kabushiki Kaisha, a joint‑stock company organized in Japan. It was filed on April 19 2023 and registered on January 9 2024. The goods covered are papermaking machines and apparatus, including machines with scanning or printing functions, and a range of paper goods such as shredders, recycled paper, printing paper, business forms, label paper, and writing paper. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the papermaking equipment and paper products sectors. The record does not grant control over every use of the wording; it is limited to the classes listed. The prosecution history shows a straightforward path to registration with no opposition or enforcement actions recorded. The latest event is the registration confirmation on January 9 2024. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that use in papermaking or paper goods could conflict with this active registration.
