`applicants must accept correspondence from the Office via e-mail throughout the examination process and must maintain a valid e-mail address.(cid:160)
`37 C.F.R. §2.23(a)(2); TMEP §§819, 819.02(a).(cid:160) TEAS Plus applicants who do not meet these requirements must submit an additional fee of
`$50 per international class of goods and/or services.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.6(a)(1)(iv); TMEP §819.04.(cid:160) In appropriate situations and where all issues can
`be resolved by amendment, responding by telephone to authorize an examiner’s amendment will not incur this additional fee.
`
`The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney.(cid:160) Applicant must respond timely and completely to
`
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(cid:160)(cid:160)
`

`

`the issue(s) below.(cid:160) 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62(a), 2.65(a); TMEP §§711, 718.03.
`
`(cid:160)S
`
`EARCH OF OFFICE RECORDS – ADVISORY
`The trademark examining attorney has searched the Office’s database of registered and pending marks and has found no conflicting marks that
`would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d).(cid:160) TMEP §704.02; see 15 U.S.C. §1052(d).
`
`However, applicant must respond to the following.
`
`(cid:160)E
`
`XPLANATION OF MARK’S SIGNIFICANCE REQUIRED
`Applicant must explain whether “VIEWER” has any meaning or significance in the industry in which the goods are manufactured/provided, or
`if such wording is a “term of art” within applicant’s industry.
`(cid:160) See 37 C.F.R. §2.61(b); TMEP §814.
`
`(cid:160)F
`
`urther, applicant must provide additional information about this wording to enable proper examination of the application.(cid:160) Specifically,
`
`applicant must respond to the following questions:(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Do the goods contain view screens or any other type of built in screen?
`
`(cid:160)F
`
`ailure to respond to a request for information is an additional ground for refusing registration.(cid:160) See In re Cheezwhse.com, Inc., 85
`USPQ2d 1917, 1919 (TTAB 2008); In re DTI P’ship LLP, 67 USPQ2d 1699, 1701 (TTAB 2003); TMEP §814.
`
`DISCLAIMER OF WORDING – REQUIREMENT
`Applicant must disclaim the descriptive wording “micro” apart from the mark as shown because it merely describes an ingredient, quality,
`characteristic, function, feature, purpose or use of applicant’s goods and/or services.(cid:160) See 15 U.S.C. §§1052(e)(1), 1056(a); In re
`Steelbuilding.com, 415 F.3d 1293, 1297, 75 USPQ2d 1420, 1421 (Fed. Cir. 2005); In re Gyulay, 820 F.2d 1216, 1217-18, 3 USPQ2d 1009, 1010
`
`(Fed. Cir. 1987); TMEP §§1213, 1213.03(a).(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Specifically, the attached news article evidence shows the wording “micro” describes a class of projectors and applicant’s use of this wording
`merely describes that the projectors fall into this class of smaller sized projectors.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`pplicant may submit the following standardized format for a disclaimer:
`
`No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “MICRO” apart from the mark as shown.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`MEP §1213.08(a)(i); see In re Owatonna Tool Co., 231 USPQ 493 (Comm’r Pats. 1983).

`well share them on atrnyiaptop screen instead. In our search for the perfect budget micro Eli 3 we looked
`for Llntt5 that were as economical as possible but still able to olfer a good viewing experience We narrowed our
`search to units that were priced under $300, measuring less than B inches long and weighing less than 3
`pounds —the smaller andlighterthe better The projectors in our lineup should make it easytio share images and

`We do not expect the type of picture from these projectors that you would see with a unit costingthousands
`ofdollars, but we did expect to have crisp. colorml images that you would be proudto share We prefertne
`projectors thatnave the flexibility to maintain that good quality image even atlarger. crowtifrrendly sizes —
`measuring upto 200 inches diagonally in some cases

`One ofthe bestlnings about good budget micro projectors is thatyou can take them anywhere. With a

`The ).IPro11c has picked up some pretty positive vines in the burgeoning g

`the company is debuting the LCoS—based MM200, a micro projection engine that is
`destined to find its way into cellphones, handheld accessories and digital cameras of
`the future. Reportedly, the device can project a 50-inch image while only drawing a

`Just landed i.n BCN and am
`
`crushed to learn that Sony
`didn't show off the PS4 console
`@irv0lpe
`
`I like Sony design a lot, which is
`pretty much the only reason I'm
`disappointed we didn't see a
`console. Otherwise, though?
`They nailed it.
