EXAMINER’S AMENDMENT
Issue date: January 20, 2020
USPTO database searched; no conflicting marks found. The trademark examining attorney searched the USPTO database of registered and pending marks and found no conflicting marks that would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d). 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); TMEP §704.02.
Application has been amended as shown below. As agreed to by David Huckabay on January 20, 2020, the examining attorney has amended the application as shown below. Please notify the examining attorney immediately of any objections. TMEP §707. Otherwise, no response is required. Id. In addition, applicant is advised that amendments to the goods and/or services are permitted only if they clarify or limit them; amendments that add to or broaden the scope of the goods and/or services are not permitted. 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a).
The following disclaimer statement is added to the record:
No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “COLOR” apart from the mark as shown.
See 15 U.S.C. §1056(a); TMEP §§1213, 1213.08(a)(i).
The colors cyan, magenta, yellow, black, gray and white are claimed as a feature of the mark.
The mark consists of the wording “R COLOR RAPID COLOR” and a design. The design features four equal sized squares in different colors. The top left square is cyan, the top right square is magenta, the bottom left square is yellow and the bottom right square is gray. A letter "R" in white color is in the center covering parts of the four colored squares, the cyan, the magenta, the yellow and the gray squares. The word "COLOR" is placed on the bottom covering part of the two bottom colored squares, the yellow and the gray squares. The letters "CO" in white color are placed on top of the bottom/left yellow square and the letters "LOR" in yellow color are placed on top of the bottom/right gray square. The words “RAPID COLOR” appear to the right of the design element in bold font in black. All colored squares are partially shaded providing a 3D result with highlights and shades defining light manifestation. Other than the letter “R” and the letters “CO”, the remaining white is background only.
37 C.F.R. §2.52(b)(1); TMEP §807.07(a)(i), (a)(ii).
The identification of services is amended to read as follows:
Commercial printing services; design printing for others; pre-press printing, offset printing, and digital printing; printing, namely, the offset printing of stationary materials, brochures, corporate identity, catalogs, magazines, business forms, advertising materials, and related printed materials
