Presstek Settles Some Litigation

Last February, Presstek filed a complaint with the ITC against Israeli printing plate manufacturer VIM Technologies and its manufacturing partner Hanita Coatings RCA, for what it claimed was infringement of its patent and trademark rights.

Presstek also sued three U.S.-based distributors of VIM products: Ohio Graphco, Guaranteed Service and Supplies, and Recognition Systems, as well as one major Canadian-based distributor, AteCe Canada. This past March, the ITC announced that it had initiated a formal investigation into Presstek’s allegations of infringement by VIM and the other respondents.
