SPG Prints B.V. v. Dover Europe SARL, District Court The Hague, 13 September 2017, Case No. ECLI:NL:RBDHA:2017:10453

Dover’s patent relates to a method for the fixed-array digital printing of fabric. SPG successfully invokes invalidity. Compensating the speed of the conveyor belt in an inkjet press is a non inventive step. This is confirmed by the fact that the patent does not describe how the speed should be compensated.
