Back in December 2002, Lexmark International filed a complaint against SCC alleging that their Smartek chips violated the anti-circumvention protections provided by the DMCA. Lexmark had designed their printers to use a proprietary toner cartridge technology which had the result that only Lexmark branded toner cartridges would work in some of their printers. Lexmark’s general tactic was to sell discounted toner cartridges with this technology under the assumption that consumers would have to return their cartridges to Lexmark to be refilled or recycled. However, the technology used to make Lexmark’s cartridges proprietary in this manner was defeated by SCC, who then designed and sold their Smartek chips to aftermarket toner cartridge makers. This made it possible for consumers to acquire toner cartridges from channels other than Lexmark. As Scooby would say, ruh-roh.
