    Metrologic Accused Of Patent Infringement

    Blackwood, New Jersey – Metrologic Instruments, Inc. (NASDAQ-NMS:MTLG), today announced that on May 10, 2006, PSC Scanning, Inc., a subsidiary of PSC Inc., filed a Complaint against Metrologic Instruments, Inc. in the United States District Court in Oregon. The essence of the claim is that Metrologic’s Stratos product line of bi-optic scanners infringes two PSC patents. The suit seeks equitable relief and damages. Metrologic strongly disputes these claims and intends to vigorously defend this action and its intellectual property.

    As reported in our first quarter earnings press release on May 9, 2006, Metrologic continues to show dramatic revenue growth and is gaining market share as verified by independent research organizations, outpacing the industry at large. Our consistent ability to grow sales extends to many product lines across the globe, allowing us to make inroads into markets previously dominated by only one or two manufacturers.

    Metrologic’s Stratos product family was first introduced at the NRF (National Retail Federation) Trade Show on January 13, 2003. The applications for the patents on which PSC is basing their latest patent infringement lawsuit were filed on May 6, 2003 and June 1, 2004 and were issued to PSC on December 13, 2005 and January 31, 2006. There is no basis to any claim that Stratos was designed or marketed based upon PSC’s intellectual property.

    Did You Know?

    A patent protects your invention.

    A patent for an invention is a grant of property rights by the U.S. Government through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patent grant excludes others from making, using, or selling the invention in the United States. The terms "Patent Pending" and "Patent Applied For" are used to inform the public that an application for a patent has been filed. Patent protection does not start until the actual grant of a patent. Marking of an article as patented, when it is not, is illegal and subject to penalty.
