Disk Wiping menu
Menu item Description
Wiping Mode
Off
Auto
Manual
Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file system
from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk is preserved,
such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.
Notes:
• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is
installed.
• Off is the factory 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.
Manual Wiping
Start now
Do not start now
Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file system
from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk is preserved,
such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.
Manual Wiping overwrites all disk space that has been used to hold data from a print
job that has been processed (printed). This type of wipe does not erase any
information related to an unprocessed print job.
Notes:
• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is
installed.
• "Do not start now" is the factory default setting.
• If the Disk Wiping access control is activated, then a user must successfully
authenticate and have the required authorization in order to initiate the disk
wipe.
