Disk Wiping menu

 

Menu item

Description

 

 

Automatic Wiping

Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file system

 

 

Off

from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk is preserved,

 

 

On

such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.

 

 

Automatic Wiping marks all disk space used by a previous job and does not permit

 

 

 

 

 

 

the file system to reuse this space until it has been sanitized.

 

 

 

Only Automatic Wiping enables users to activate disk wiping without having to take

 

 

 

the printer offline for an extended amount of time.

 

 

 

Notes:

 

 

 

This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is

 

 

 

installed.

 

 

 

Off is the default setting.

 

 

 

Due to the large amount of resources required for Automatic Wiping, activating

 

 

 

this option may decrease printer performance, especially if the printer requires

 

 

 

hard disk space faster than it can be wiped and returned to service.
