Statement of Volatility

Your printer contains various types of memory that can store device and network settings, and user data.

Type of memory	Description
Volatile memory	Your printer uses standard random access memory (RAM) to
	temporarily buffer user data during simple print jobs.
Non-volatile memory	Your printer may use two forms of non-volatile memory:
	EEPROM and NAND (flash memory). Both types are used to
	store the operating system, device settings, network
	information, bookmark settings, and embedded solutions.
Hard disk memory	Some printers have a hard disk drive installed. The printer
	hard disk is designed for device-specific functionality. This lets
	the device retain buffered user data from complex print jobs,
	as well as form data, and font data.

Erase the content of any installed printer memory in the following circumstances:

•The printer is being decommissioned.

•The printer hard disk is being replaced.

•The printer is being moved to a different department or location.
