SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission instituted this investigation 

on March 23, 2006, based on a 

complaint filed by Epson Portland, Inc. 

of Oregon; Epson America, Inc. of 

California; and Seiko Epson Corporation 

of Japan (collectively ‘‘Epson’’). 71 FR 

14720 (March 23, 2006). The complaint, 

as amended, alleged violations of 

section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 

(‘‘section 337’’) in the importation into 

the United States, the sale for 

importation, and the sale within the 

United States after importation of 

certain ink cartridges and components 

thereof by reason of infringement of 

claim 7 of U.S. Patent No. 5,615,957; 

claims 18, 81, 93, 149, 164 and 165 of 

U.S. Patent No. 5,622,439; claims 83 and 

84 of U.S. Patent No. 5,158,377; claims 

19 and 20 of U.S. Patent No. 5,221,148; 

claims 29, 31, 34 and 38 of U.S. Patent 

No. 5,156,472; claim 1 of U.S. Patent 

No. 5,488,401; claims 1–3 and 9 of U.S. 

Patent No. 6,502,917; claims 1, 31 and 

34 of U.S. Patent No. 6,550,902; claims 

1, 10 and 14 of U.S. Patent No. 

6,955,422; claim 1 of U.S. Patent No. 

7,008,053; and claims 21, 45, 53 and 54 

of U.S. Patent No. 7,011,397. The 

complaint further alleged that an 

industry in the United States exists as 

required by subsection (a)(2) of section 

337. The complainants requested that 

the Commission issue a general 

exclusion order and cease and desist 

orders. The Commission named as 

respondents 24 companies located in 

China, Germany, Hong Kong, Korea, and 

the United States. Several respondents 

were terminated from the investigation 

on the basis of settlement agreements or 

consent orders or were found in default. 

On March 30, 2007, the presiding ALJ 

(Judge Luckern) issued a final ID in the 

investigation finding a violation of 

section 337 with respect to certain 

respondents. He found the asserted 

claims valid and infringement by certain 

respondents’ products. He 

recommended issuance of a general 

exclusion order and cease and desist 

orders directed to certain respondents 

and bond in the amount of $13.60 per 

cartridge during the Presidential review 

period. 

On October, 19, 2007, after review, 

the Commission made its final 

determination in the investigation, 

finding a violation of section 337. The 

Commission issued a general exclusion 

order, limited exclusion order, and 

cease and desist orders directed to 

several domestic respondents. The 

Commission also determined that the 

public interest factors enumerated in 19 

U.S.C. 1337(d), (f), and (g) did not 

preclude issuance of the aforementioned 

remedial orders, and that the bond 

during the Presidential review period 

would be $13.60 per cartridge for 

covered ink cartridges. 

On February 8, 2008, complainant 

Epson filed two complaints seeking 

enforcement proceedings under 

Commission Rule 210.75. One 

complaint alleges that Ninestar 

Technology Co., Ltd.; Ninestar 

Technology Company, Ltd.; and Town 

Sky Inc. have violated the general 

exclusion order and that Ninestar 

Technology Company, Ltd. and Town 

Sky Inc. have violated the cease and 

desist orders directed to them. Epson’s 

second complaint alleges that Mipo 

International Ltd. and Mipo America, 

Ltd. have violated the general and 

limited exclusion orders and that Mipo 

America, Ltd. has violated the cease and 

desist order directed to it. 

Having examined the complaints 

seeking a formal enforcement 

proceeding, and having found that the 

complaints comply with the 

requirements for institution of a formal 

enforcement proceeding contained in 

Commission rule 210.75, the 

Commission has determined to institute 

a consolidated formal enforcement 

proceeding to determine whether the 

five respondents are in violation of the 

Commission’s exclusion orders and 

cease and desist orders issued in the 

investigation, and what, if any, 

enforcement measures are appropriate. 

The following entities are named as 

parties to the formal enforcement 

proceeding: (1) Complainant Epson, (2) 

respondents (Ninestar Technology Co., 

Ltd.; Ninestar Technology Company, 

Ltd.; Town Sky Inc.; Mipo America Ltd., 

and Mipo International, Ltd.) and (3) a 

Commission investigative attorney to be 

designated by the Director, Office of 

Unfair Import Investigations. 

The authority for the Commission’s 

determination is contained in section 

337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in 

section 210.75 of the Commission’s 

Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 

210.75). 

Issued: May 1, 2008. 

By order of the Commission.

Secretary to the Commission.
