Distributed denial-of-service attacks aim to bring portions of a network down by bombarding the network with requests, and U.S. financial institutions have been prime targets, hit by attacks that rendered their websites unavailable to customers.
These five tips can help maintain your financial institution's network and cyber security posture while decreasing the risk and potential collateral damage of DDoS attacks.
Start with the Basic Security Objectives
Financial enterprises should consider implementing controls as they relate to the three main tenets of information security, the CIA triad. These principles are confidentiality, integrity and availability and are the foundation of any information security policy infrastructure.
Confidentiality refers to the safeguarding of sensitive or classified data; integrity refers to keeping the original data unadulterated and intact; and availability refers to the resources and data that need to be continuously available to authorized parties to maintain day-to-day business.
While the CIA triad is important for every network, it is especially vital for the financial sector where classified data can consist of personal information that must be protected due to regulatory compliance.
Implement an Effective Security Information Management Solution
Another early stage security measure is utilizing a highly effective Security Information Management solution or Security Information and Event Management solution. The exact solution depends largely on the size and needs of your financial enterprise, and both are designed to increase the visibility of telemetry within the enterprise network or on its boundaries.
A SIM solution carries out the collection, storing, alerting and reporting on the data whereas SIEM solutions combine SIM with a Security Event Management component that processes logs in order to create alerts from connected events.
Both solutions have a wide range of capabilities, including compliance-related functions, such as the retention of messages and creation of reports specifically designed to address audit or compliance concerns. Audit and compliance issues are major concerns within the financial sector, and a strong SIEM can provide the additional visibility an enterprise needs to decrease the resolution time of an incident.
Integrate Advanced Evasion Technique Protection
Advanced Evasion Techniques consist of an evasive technique that lets intruders bypass security detection and logging during network security reconnaissance. In addition to bypassing network security, they are usually stackable through simultaneous execution on multiple protocol layers, capable of changing dynamically even in the midst of an attack and consist of numerous combinations of evasion techniques and modifications.
AET protection requires zero-day protection in all layers as well as deep packet inspection across multiple network layers and protocols. AET protection components should also have integration capabilities, a full range of features, high manageability and infrastructure patch capabilities.
AETs are especially dangerous to the financial sector where, once again, extremely sensitive information is at stake in a highly regulated environment.
Establish Web and Content Controls
Web and content controls are integral for inspecting and blocking unauthorized access to sites and dangerous active content. Active content in the broadest sense consists of electronic documents that are designed to automatically invoke actions or trigger a response within a system without the assistance of an individual, phone-home type of behavior. Such content is a major hazard due to its automation and the fact that an individual may not directly or knowingly execute the actions.
Electronic documents have an added component of danger when they are actually programs or consist of programs that can be self-triggered, requiring no user intervention, and result in the same type of actions executing a program would entail. Because active content can be a death knell for the integrity of a financial network, protection against triggered behaviors is necessary, as is requiring user intervention to open executables, and strong authentication, authorization and accounting.
Employ Digital and Network Forensics
Digital and network forensics are particularly essential for dealing with DDoS in the financial sector as both serve to provide added visibility, remediation and legal response capabilities.
Digital forensics relates directly to legal response capabilities, as it deals with discovering and analyzing electronic data for use in a potential court case. Network forensics seeks to pinpoint the source of a security incident or attack by capturing, recording and analyzing network events.
Lacking either process opens your financial enterprise to additional legal ramifications and a higher risk of repeated attacks.

Ghajini (2008) lyrics and translation: Kaise Mujhe
This is arguably the love song of the year, and perhaps the most complete overall song too. The melody is haunting and at times grand (with bass atypical of its genre), and is included as an instrumental track (six of six in the album). I really like the emphasis on the piano and sitaar. The lyrics by Prasoon Joshi are phenomenal. If the words in Latoo (translated here) were simple, here they are sophisticated and beautifully juxtaposed to imply perhaps more than a translation can justifiably capture. Honorable mention to the word 'Malhaar' (merry song sung during the rains, often as a prayer for rain), which stood out in the song Ghanan Ghanan from the greatest film ever made! :)
The vocals are by Benny Dayal, who's having a dream debut run with his second consecutive super hit following Tu Hi Toh Meri Dost Hai (translated here) in Yuvvraaj. Shreya Ghosal contributes in fantastic fashion to a song that caters to her strengths. It's very difficult to sing all round, and the result a testament to the quality of their vocal range.
On to the song, which you can listen to here. Thoughts? Here are the lyrics and my translation. The sentiments are beautifully expressed, challenging to convey, and a fun, truly sensational experience to translate! If there were an example of a song easy to get lost in, this is it!

Sorry, Benny.
But, its Shreya Again. Her 'Aalaap' is still keeps haunting in my mind. Even in Instrumental track, she's just wow.
Lovely song. With fresh lyrics. See, in past, when 'hero log' praise their beloved, they would probably say 'uparwaale ne tumhe fursat se banaya hoga'.
Prasoon had put 'Main to sochta tha ke aaj kal uparwale ko fursat nahi...' read that para. Innovative.
Other best para is, 'Zindgi sitar ho gayee..Rim jhim Malhaar ho gayee'. I want to correct one thing. To my knowledge, Malhaar Raga was sang in past, 'to bring down the rains' not 'during' the rains. So i think you should put Malhaar in English translation too, and put note same as Sitaar. And give sum details.

Hey, when are you touching 'Bachchuu..'. Its my most favorite track. just pure 'Dhamaal'.
- Wednesday, November 26, 2008
I'm in love with this particular song
Amazing translation..
can I copy it to aamirkhan.org along with the other translations ????????????
of course will credit you..
with all love..

- Darshit said...
'mere haath mein'-Fanaa
'meelon ka jaise'-Lovestory 2050
'kaise mujhe'-Ghajini
Listen all. Especially the Beats.
Sounds familier?
Its the vocals that makes this different. We can mix all three without DJ.
- Thursday, November 27, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
Hi Darshit: Both Benny and Shreya are great! Agree on the lyrics, I really like the use of the word 'tarannum' -- fine stuff.
My understanding of the word 'malhaar' was that it had multiple meanings, 'song of rain' being generic enough to accomodate both. But you're right, and I'll add the footnote below with my next update. Thanks!
The crescendo in each of the songs you mention is somewhat similar ('Mere Haath Mein' had lyrics by Prasoon Joshi too), but there are several songs of the genre that are similar. I still think the music in this is unlike the rest, more authentic in the diversity of instruments used. And yes, it's always fun to mix music! :)
Hi Mere Dil at AamirKhan.org: Thanks! Please only provide a link to the translations, I would greatly appreciate that. Go Aamir and Aamirians! :)
- Thursday, November 27, 2008
Kaise Mujhe is a typical rahman song that takes time to grow on you,i'd say the best of this album,benny n shreya hav sung it beautifully,shreya particularly,n i din know shreya had it in her to sing a song like latoo.!
Awsome,rahman is not a musician he is a magician,brings out the best from his singers.!! :)
- Saturday, November 29, 2008
Nothing to say except that it's another one rahmantic!
Hats off to both of you :Rahman for the music and Thebollywoodfand for translating :)

- theBollywoodFan said...
Hi Shahid: Agreed on the song being the best from the album. It has all the elements of an excellent song, and the result is beautiful. A magician is right!
Hi Asha: Thank you. Absolutely 'rahmantic' is correct. And hats off indeed to Rahman and lyricist Prasoon Joshi! Translating is the easy bit :)

Best thing about AR songs are they grow on you. Its like a blanket which just keeps getting warmer and cosier.
I love this song... I woke up with the tune going on in my head today.
Wonderful lyrics... the emphasis on natural force stirs deep emotions!
Thanks for translation.

- Saturday, December 06, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
Hi CH. Thanks for stopping by and for your comment! Completely agree on A. R.'s music, it's so magical. At the very beginning, I remember not liking one of his soundtracks the first time I listened. Then, I came back to it a few days later and thought to myself, 'what was I thinking?'! =)
Hi Shahid: That is awesome, my friend. Many good wishes and prayers your way, and inshaAllah you will get there soon! Of course, I'd review your music, just promise me you'll give me an exclusive interview each time you work on something for Aamir! ;) Do you have a link to song(s) you have composed/are they (legally) okay to be shared already?
- Saturday, December 06, 2008

Hi Shahid: Ah, I see. I'll be patient and wait for the complete song with music...that'll be great, and I'm really excited for the course you're taking, good luck! Oh, and Eid Mubarak to you buddy!
- Sunday, December 07, 2008
Thanks for the translation, since I can't understand the meaning. I am Indonesian anyway. I love hindi music especially AR Rahman, Salim-Sulaiman, SELoy. They are maestro in the music. and I think this music "kaise mujhe" is the best of the very best music by AR Rahman, so original, so peacefull. I was surprise rahman used shreya voices for the vocal and it's perfectly beautiful and incredibly heart touching, I thought he's gonna used madhushree's voice since she was rahman's favourite.
- Wednesday, December 10, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
Hi Adhie: Thank you so much for visiting and commenting! The artists you mention are all really good and I like their emphasis on originality of content, as you say.
'Kaise Mujhe' just keeps getting better! I hope they use it in its entirety in the film. It'll be very interesting.
Do visit again. :)

- Friday, December 12, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
Shahid: Sure, hope you had a good one! Yeah, I cannot wait for the next couple of weeks to zoom by :) Rab Ne should be interesting, you're right about it sounding like a typical SRK flick (we've had tons of those), but when done right, they can be pretty entertaining. My local theater isn't showing it this weekend, so I might just catch it in a week or so when it does...
- Friday, December 12, 2008
Hey by the way Aamir is marketing ghajini wid a brilliant idea.!
All the official's in most of mumbai's multiplexe's r seen sporting ghajini's hairstyle,i mean from the manager to the popcorn vendor to the ticket seller everyone :)
Now tht's Aamir Khan Style i say,n the news people wr saying,people r going to watch rab ne,bt wil come back wid ghajini's thoughts :D
Way to go aamir :)
- Saturday, December 13, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
Thanks for the information, Shahid. That's interesting, although pretty unbelievable. There's got to be a news story on that?!
All right, it's next week!!! :)
- Sunday, December 14, 2008
Well thr is actually,al the news channels(Indian) wr covering tht story.!
N i saw a 15 min documentary on how Aamir achieved that fab body,it was amazing.!!
I searched the video on youtube bt its still not available,i saw it on headlines today :)
- Sunday, December 14, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
That's interesting. I haven't seen that documentary on Aamir's physique and all, but I have heard him say (and know, as many of us do) it's a painful process, and that makes his new look all the more interesting, no?! Cheers.

Asin is looking excellent in everything she's appeared in so far related to Ghajini, and I've run out of adjectives for her look and styling, really. Sure sounds like she can act, so it's great her next film -- London Dreams -- is opposite Salman! Trust she'll be around for a while if she can get a good start!
- Tuesday, December 16, 2008
- Saurabh said...
I think 'How did we unite' means 'kaise hum dono mil gaye', which is different from 'kaise mujhe tum mil gaye'. Am I right? Please let me know what is it (as I am poor in English). Thank you.
- Saturday, December 20, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
The literal translation is slightly different, yes. But I think the line immediately following is more direct at implying who is thankful, so translation-wise, not a concern in my opinion. Words and implications are always open to interpretation, there's never one 'absolutely' correct translation, that's my approach, at least :)
- Saturday, December 20, 2008
man, BENNY is toooo gud in dis song.. notice d way he puts those variations (sandhadis) in d lines "phir bhi tumhe bannaake woh" , its expert singing dude.. :) shreya is good as well but i feel its benny who gives life to d song.. i believe he`s gotta GR8888 future, cuz i`ve never seen any other south indian pronounce HINDI wit such ease.. and not to forget the GENIUS behind dis beauty, AR :) as chickhawk said dis`s a perfect example of a rahman song dat grows on us as v keep listening to it..
superb review and thanks for d translation.. :) keep up d good work buddy:)
- Sunday, December 28, 2008
- theBollywoodFan said...
Thank you for your comment and welcome, Butty! I really enjoyed Benny in this song. His bits are more technically difficult to sing, and he's brilliantly executed them. Yes, he will have a great future, and I think will lead the next generation of singers. Have you seen the film? We're discussing it here. Cheers.

I really appreciate your translations. One question: Doesn't "jheel" also mean lake, and isn't that its primary definition? I've heard the word used frequently in bollywood songs mostly to describe the eyes, e.g. jheel si ankhain hai teri, doobh jaaney de mujhe. I did not know it also meant swamp/abyss as you say, but to me it makes more sense as simply "lake" in most songs. For example, in the above line, the male is asking to sink himself in her "jheel si ankhain" and I think jheel makes more sense as simply a body of water like "lake" than as a swamp or abyss. Likewise, that is how I interpreted it in Kaise Mujhe.
I really do love your work and I hope you will keep translating more songs.
- Friday, January 16, 2009
- theBollywoodFan said...
Hi Anonymous, and thank you for your kind words. It's always great to know the translations provided some value!
'Jheel' is very often indeed associated with a lake, absolutely. And your interpretation is as valid as any other. The thought process behind the inclusion of 'abyss' was that the character singing the song almost implies that his life was lonely and lifeless before she stepped in, and that the woman he sings of or for was a blessing for him, akin to light in darkness. Him thanking his destiny in the first lines played a big role in influencing what followed.
Having said that, I certainly should have paid more attention when I saw the film, to be certain of what the poet intended to get across. A discussion like this which only validates how well both variations would work, only increases our appreciation for it all!
Once again, thank you for your comment. And I'll hope to keep up. Cheers!
- Saturday, January 17, 2009

The music may not be Rahman's best, but does have touches of the master musician. The best track of the film is undoubtedly Kaise Mujhe Tum which has a soulful haunting track. The music will take a while to get onto you. But once it does, you won't stop listening to it. Its one of the heart touching song... so much that you might wake up in the morning with that song at the back of your mind.

Thanks for stopping by Naved. I agree about the song. I actually like Ghajini's soundtrack -- it's a shame it's compared to Rahman's more traditional soundtracks because it belongs to an entirely different genre. For one with a dance/pop feel, I think it holds its own well!

I don't have much to say about this cherry streusel pound cake except that I received rave reviews and multiple requests for the recipe. It's surprising that everyone liked it so much since I thought it was just okay. Shows you how much I know! I adapted the recipe from Carolyn Weil in Fine Cooking magazine so I can't take full credit for the success. The original recipe called for dried cranberries and buttermilk but I used dried sour cherries (Montmorency variety) and sour cream instead. I also made the cake once with nonfat yogurt and, needless to say, the full fat sour cream version totally kicked the nonfat yogurt version in the booty. But the yogurt version was still well received by my co-workers. There is more sour cream than butter so the pound cake tastes less buttery than a typical pound cake. I think it was that slight tanginess from the sour cream that really won everyone's heart.
Cherry Streusel Pound Cake
(makes one 8.5-inch loaf)
1/4 cup (about 1 ounce) walnut pieces
2 tbsp light brown sugar
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
4 ounces (1 stick / 8 tbsp) unsalted butter, softened at room temp
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup dried cherries, lightly chopped
Preheat oven to 325F. Lightly butter and flour an 8.5x4.5-inch loaf pan.
Combine walnuts, brown sugar and cinnamon in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the walnuts are chopped into small pieces. If you don't want to use a food processor, just chop the walnuts finely and then combine with the sugar and cinnamon.
Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside dry ingredients.
In the bowl of stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally. Then add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
On low speed, add a third of the flour and mix until the flour is just barely combined. Then mix in half of the sour cream. Repeat with another third of the flour, the remaining half of the sour cream and then the last third of the flour. Be sure to mix each time just until barely combined. Stir in the chopped dried cherries with a spoon or spatula.
Spread half the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the streusel over the batter. Spread on the remaining batter. (Alternatively, sprinkle all but 2 tbsp streusel over the first half of the batter. Spread on the remaining batter and then top with the 2 tbsp streusel.)
Bake at 325F until loaf is golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean, about 60-75 minutes. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then carefully remove the cake from the pan and let it cool completely on a rack.
For months I've been waiting for the Williams-Sonoma train cake pan to go on sale but it never did. I'm just not willing to pay $34 for the pan. But I found one for $19 at the Williams-Sonoma outlet in Primm when I was visiting Las Vegas in early December. My nephew loves trains so I wanted to make him a train cake for Christmas. Even though the holidays are long gone I wanted to share.

User Experience Customization - the "next big thing" on nanoHUB.
Through usage pattern identification and IP lookup we should improve the user experience and engagement on nanoHUB. We can: – students that seem to expose a certain class usage pattern – like freshmen chemistry at northwestern – highlight corresponding teaching items on the nanoHUB. As featured items – users coming in from a certain location should see maybe a quote from someone they "know" at their location. – users that are exposing a research behavior pattern should see a featured nanoHUB publication/citation and be encouraged to submit their own publication, so we do not have to hunt it down through google.

Here's some additional info on the Colorless Blender. We have it available in CIAO or SKETCH. The main difference is your preference in NIB.
With the colorless blender, we expect blending, but it really does the following best:
- Lightens Color
- Pushes color
- Fades color to white
- Great for Special Effects
- Blends Colors
- Fade to white by pushing colors
- Start with an area that you've only colored the edges. Make sure you have good scratch paper under your work for this technique.
- Color from the lightest spot, out towards the edges. Don't stop in the middle or it will give you ugly lines/streaks. Use a lot of blender, so it's really juicy and is shoving that color around very strongly.
- Color almost to the edge, but not over. Remember, your color is getting pushed in front of your blender, so if you color up to the line it will go over. Also note how dark the color is around the edge. This is at least 1 or 2 shades darker than my original color, so try this technique with lighter colors until you get an idea of how it will react. If you need it lighter then let it dry and repeat.
- If you want a nice subtle shadow that fades out from your image then try the same thing, only use a lot less blender and a much lighter touch.

Women, get loud! Keep pushing for equal pay
Gentlemen, raise a glass to Equal Pay Day. You've won again. You are still making about 25 percent more than the woman next to you who is pushing the same pencil, tapping the same computer keys, devising the same software or screwing in the same widget. Each year, a date in April is selected to illustrate how long into the current year a woman must work to match the amount a man doing the same job earned the previous year. We reached that milestone last Tuesday.
President Barack Obama is on the case - he has daughters after all. On Tuesday, he signed two executive orders: The first prohibits federal contractors from retaliating against the odd employee who might willingly share his (or, more rarely, her) salary. The second instructs the Labor Department to keep wage-related data in a way that shows the disparities and requires employers to demonstrate that differences in pay between male and female employees doing the same work are based on something other than their sex.
Women earn 77 cents for every dollar earned by a man - a difference of about $11,607 a year - and the spread widens over the course of a woman's career, especially if she has a college degree.
Sadly, the executive order is limited to just a small part of the economy, but you've got to start somewhere. (Mr. President, you might want to start at the White House, where women make 88 cents on the male dollar.) Obama took his first swing at the problem in 2009 when he signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
Ledbetter, who attended the White House signing today, worked at Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. for 20 years. She suspected she was making less than men with less seniority and experience doing the same job, but she couldn't get the data to prove it. When she did, a court ruled the 180-day statute of limitations for such complaints had run out. The law fixes that. Recognizing how devilishly difficult it is to get the information to prove harm, it starts the 180-day clock running anew with each discriminatory paycheck.
The law makes a difference, but it didn't make the information any easier to ferret out. Would a guy tell a girl his salary around the water cooler? It's more likely he'll overshare details of his sex life. Men don't think information lifts all boats, even if they're not necessarily going to be paid less if women are paid more.
Why take a chance? In that way, men are in cahoots with management: They share a fear that fairness will cost them. There's going to have to be a law, and there's one proposed in the Senate this week, the Paycheck Fairness Act, which expands the president's executive orders beyond federal contractors to cover all employers. Forty-four Republicans used a procedural maneuver to block debate, leaving the bill four votes short of the 60 needed to move forward.
No surprise, Congress had killed the Paycheck Fairness Act twice before.
As with great health care and so many other goodies, Congress already enjoys paycheck fairness. Because salary information is public there, Sen. Dianne Feinstein doesn't have to look at male colleagues to her left and right and wonder if they're making more. Sunlight is the best disinfectant for unfairness.
As hard as it is to correct income inequality between men and women, it's a cakewalk compared with the other kind - the huge gap between the 1 percent and the rest. Don't even go there. Talk about the fact that there's a minimum wage in this country but no maximum one and you are engaging in class warfare. Mention that the chief executive officer of McDonald's is making more than 500 times more than the guy flipping burgers and you'll be invited to move to Sweden.
There's no law that can fix that, but there are signs of hope. Shaming is coming back. At least you know that members of the 1 percent are feeling pangs of guilt when they overreact to criticism of their pay packages with comparisons to Kristallnacht. Masters of the Universe, we are not hauling you off in cattle cars, just suggesting you've rewarded yourselves at a level that would make an oligarch blush.
Pope Francis is putting the wretched back into wretched excess. He is embarrassed to live at a level out of reach for all but a few of his flock, and has downsized from limousines and palazzi to a Ford Focus and an apartment. Canon law isn't going to reform the Vatican, but shame might. One bishop after another is giving up his mansion.
There may be irresolvable disagreement about whether it's fair for a CEO (even a superstar) to make hundreds of times the salary of a worker, but can't we at least agree that it's unfair that a man should be paid more than the woman beside him doing the same job. Ladies, let's raise a glass ourselves - not to Equal Pay Day - but to another year of Unequal Pay Days, then vow to change it.
Ask a colleague what he makes. Take it to your boss. The law's not on your side, but there's no law against asking.

DDT4 Bracketing Update & Non-Tournament Participants!
By Silverback, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla Staff Writer
Quarantine Zone 7c, CA - When a business, large or small, operates during the winter months, there tends to be a high rate of employee personal days. Sometimes those days are used for vacation, but often times they are purely "sick days." In the case of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (http://www.prowrestlingguerrilla.com), those "sick days" were actually "sick weeks," as the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla offices were rife with rhinovirus, streptococcus, rubella, typhoid, bubonic plague, the trots, and sinusitis. This lead to the Center for Disease Control declaring the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla offices a "hot zone," and forcing a mandatory 192-hour quarantine for every staff member, along with one very unlucky UPS driver. What does this have to do with anything, you might be asking? Nothing. Now shut up, here's your DDT4 update:
From their near-death beds, the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla Board of Directors have announced that the DDT4 First Round matches, along with the tournament brackets, will remain secret. This means that the fans, as well as tournament competitors, will not know which teams will be squaring off until they are actually in the ring with each other. The Board of Directors feels this will allow for the best overall tag teams to advance in, and ultimately win, the DDT4 tournament. While this blind bracketing system may seem to put the "nerdlier" teams (teams that heavily favor research and preparation) at a disadvantage, those teams will just have to prepare seven distinct First Round game plans instead of just one. But really, nerds love planning, so it's a win-win.
Along with the blind bracketing, "Hollywood Submission Machine" Joey Ryan, The Fightin' Taylor Boys (Brian Cage-Taylor & Ryan Taylor), "Pretty" Peter Avalon, and Los Luchas (Phoenix Star & Zokre) will all be in non-tournament action at DDT4.
DDT4 takes place on Friday, March 4, 2011 at 8:00PM at American Legion Post #308 in Reseda, CA, and will feature eight teams vying for a shot at El Generico and Paul London,

Of all the rookies who began the season as their team's starting quarterback over the past 20 years, only one attempted fewer passes than Russell Wilson through five games.
But none had more victories.
Coach Pete Carroll has tailored his team's approach to the fact that he went with a rookie. In evaluating the results of that decision after five games, the best comparison isn't to the rest of the quarterbacks who are starting in this league or the guy who could be starting here in Matt Flynn, but the 20 rookies who started at quarterback in Week 1 over the past 20 years.

HP PSC 1209 Ink CartridgesBack to Ink & Toner Finder
SuperMediaStore carries an extensive array of HP PSC ink cartridges designed to fit your HP PSC 1209 printer. We offer OEM, remanufactured, and compatible ink cartridges for many printers from the HP PSC series.
When considering the difference between OEM, remanufactured, and compatible ink cartridges, know the following:
. . . OEM (also known as original and genuine) cartridges refer to brand new ink cartridges produced by the same company that manufactured your printer. In this case, HP itself is the producer of the OEM HP PSC ink cartridges designed for use with the HP PSC 1209.
. . . Remanufactured cartridges involve taking previously used original ink cartridges, cleaning them, refilling them with fresh ink, and thoroughly testing them before sending them back out to the marketplace. In this case, a company aside from HP has taken OEM cartridges and put them through this process.
. . . Compatible ink cartridges are new ink cartridges manufactured by a company aside from the printer manufacturer. In this case, a company aside from HP has manufactured ink cartridges that are compatible with the HP PSC 1209.
See the list below to see all of our HP PSC ink cartridges designed for the HP PSC 1209.
Sorry, no products are available for this printer.
