Secure File Erase Mode
This option determines the behavior of a secure storage erase operation and the erase operation that a printer automatically performs to make space available on a hard disk drive for incoming print jobs.

●Secure Sanitizing Erase: Erases the file system references to operations and provides multiple layers of masking to hide data stored on the hard disk drive or other erasable storage devices. This mode may introduce a significant performance impact to the device while the process is executing.
