Presstek Prevails in Plate Patent Case

Presstek has prevailed in a critical ruling in the company’s patent infringement case against Israel-based VIM Technologies, Ltd.

In an opinion made public on Wednesday, Administrative Law Judge E. James Gildea ruled that Presstek’s patents for its printing plate technology are valid and enforceable and that VIM has been infringing Presstek’s rights by importing and selling VIM’s plates in the United States.
