Erasing non‑volatile memory

Erase individual settings, device and network settings, security settings, and embedded solutions by following these steps:

1Turn off the printer.

2Hold down 2 and 6 on the keypad while turning the printer on. Release the buttons only when the screen with the progress bar appears.

The printer performs a power-on sequence, and then the Configuration menu appears. When the printer is fully turned on, a list of functions appears on the printer display instead of the standard home screen icons.

3Touch Wipe All Settings.

The printer will restart several times during this process.

Note: Wipe All Settings securely removes device settings, solutions, jobs, and passwords from the printer memory.

4Touch Back > Exit Config Menu.

The printer will perform a power‑on reset, and then return to normal operating mode.

Erasing printer hard disk memory

Note: Some printer models may not have a printer hard disk installed.

Configuring Disk Wiping in the printer menus lets you remove residual confidential material left by print jobs by securely overwriting files that have been marked for deletion.

Using the printer control panel

2Hold down 2 and 6 while turning the printer on. Release the buttons only when the screen with the progress bar appears.

3Touch Wipe Disk, and then touch one of the following:

•Wipe disk (fast)—This lets you overwrite the disk with all zeroes in a single pass.
