In addition to this proceeding in Europe, in February 2008, Presstek filed a Complaint with the International Trade Commission (ITC) against Israeli printing plate manufacturer VIM Technologies, Ltd. and its manufacturing partner    Hanita Coatings     RCA, Ltd. for infringement of Presstek's patent and trademark rights. Presstek also sued four U.S. based distributors of VIM products: Spicers Paper, Inc., Guaranteed Service & Supplies, Inc., Ohio Graphco Inc., and Recognition Systems Inc., as well as one Canadian based distributor, AteCe Canada. Presstek subsequently settled with Ohio Graphco Inc., which agreed to stop selling the VIM product and to
cooperate in the ITC's investigation. Presstek is seeking from the ITC in a hearing that commenced on April 22, among other things, an Order from the ITC forbidding the importation and sale of the VIM printing plates in the United States; such an Order would be enforced at all U.S. borders by the U.S. Customs Service. On March 30, 2009, as part of a settlement in a separate lawsuit brought by Presstek against a VIM distributor, Prograf Digital Service and its principal, Joseph Musgrave, the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire issued an injunction against Prograf and Musgrave, prohibiting them from the sale of VIM printing plates.
