Lexmark invokes DMCA in toner suit (News.com)
As a postscript, Ed Felten's remarks on this case are worth a read. "Clearly, Lexmark is being creative in their interpretation of the DMCA. But their arguments are not ridiculous. The purpose of the DMCA was to ban certain types of interoperation. And the DMCA intentionally did more than just to strengthen the traditional rights of copyright holders -- it created new categories of rights. Lexmark will not be laughed out of court."
