Security features
This section explains important security features that are available for the MFP:
● Secure the embedded Web server
● Secure Disk Erase
● Security Lock
● Authentication
● Lock the control-panel menus
Secure the embedded Web server
Assign a password for access to the embedded Web server so that unauthorized users cannot change
the MFP settings.
1. Open the embedded Web server. See Embedded Web server on page 148 .
2. Click the Settings tab.
3. On the left side of the window, click Security.
4. Type the password next to New Password, and type it again next to Verify Password.
5. Click Apply. Make note of the password and store it in a safe place.
Secure Disk Erase
To protect deleted data from unauthorized access on the MFP hard drive, use the Secure Disk Erase
feature. This feature can securely erase print and copy jobs from the hard drive.
Secure Disk Erase offers the following levels of disk security:
● Non-Secure Fast Erase. This is a simple file-table erase function. Access to the file is removed,
but actual data is retained on the disk until it is overwritten by subsequent data-storage operations.
This is the fastest mode. Non-Secure Fast Erase is the default erase mode.
● Secure Fast Erase. Access to the file is removed, and the data is overwritten with a fixed identical
character pattern. This is slower than Non-Secure Fast Erase, but all data is overwritten. Secure
Fast Erase meets the U.S. Department of Defense 5220-22.M requirements for the clearing of disk
media.
● Secure Sanitizing Erase. This level is similar to the Secure Fast Erase mode. In addition, data is
repetitively overwritten by using an algorithm that prevents any residual data persistence. This
mode will impact performance. Secure Sanitizing Erase meets the U.S. Department of Defense
5220-22.M requirements for the sanitization of disk media.
Data affected
Data affected (covered) by the Secure Disk Erase feature includes temporary files that are created
during the print and copying process, stored jobs, proof and hold jobs, disk-based fonts, disk-based
macros (forms), stored fax files, address books, and HP and third-party applications.
NOTE: Stored jobs will be securely overwritten only when they have been deleted through the
Retrieve Job menu on the MFP after the appropriate erase mode has been set.
