The instant invention relates to a method and system for addressing the increasing risk of litigation and huge payouts that patent holders face with regards to marking of intellectual property indicia, particularly patent markings, upon a commercial ready product. For companies that maintain large patent portfolios and/or produce large numbers of products, the methods and systems in accordance with the instant invention provide assurance that the company can obtain the benefits of patent marking while not becoming the subject of quick payout seeking plaintiffs. Moreover, the methods and systems of the instant invention can be used to harmonize the company's efforts of compliance of the false marking statutes. The system generally includes one or more databases containing one or more intellectual property status related data factors associated with one or more commercial ready products, at least one programmable device that receives, stores, manipulates, and outputs data and is coupled with one or more database, and a printer in operable connection with the at least one programmable device for printing the intellectual property indicia.
