Ministry's Selangor branch has busted a syndicate that buys and re-sells
fake printer cartridges.
Its enforcement chief Othman Nawang said an enforcement team raided
three premises, a factory, a shop and a house in Section U5 here today.
He said 3,252 fake cartridges of various brands such as HP, Brother,
Samsung, and Canon, as well as a compressor machine and cartridge
machine cleaner worth a total of RM500,000 were seized during the raid
based on a tip-off from a printer company.

RM5 and RM12 per unit and re-sold them for between RM50 and RM180 each.
