No Copyright Remuneration for Printers in Germany

By Karl-Friedrich Lenz

ADVERTISEMENTS

The German Federal Court of Justice has decided on December 6th that the legal duty to pay remuneration to copyright holders for technology capable of copying under Article 54a of the Copyright Law does not apply to computer printers.

It is possible to use a printer to make a copy of a protected work. However, in many cases the user of a printer has a legal right to do so, for example when printing an Internet page for personal use or when printing electronic works paid for by the user in cases where the copyright holder gives the user that right.
