Disk Wipe

Usually when you delete a file, the file’s dictionary entry is removed
but data still remains on the disk. The Disk Wipe utility enables you
to clear previously deleted files. The utility eliminates the contents
of your deleted files by scanning all of the empty sectors on the
disk and replacing them with zeros. Non empty sectors are left
untouched. This feature enables you to work in a more secure
environment. If there is a system shutdown, the disk wipe
operation can begin immediately.

To operate the IC-304 disk wipe utility:

1.

In the Preferences window, select

Security

.

2.

Select the

Wipe disk on system shutdown

check box.

3.

Click

Save

Notes:

The disk wipe operation does not function well when the Norton Utilities
application is installed. Before you activate the Disk Wipe utility, make
sure that Norton Utilities is not installed on the IC-304 print controller.

In rare cases, the process of deleting files from the Storage area is not
completed—for example, the system shuts down before the deletion
process is completed. In these cases, parts of the deleted files still reside
in the D:\Output folder. Therefore, it is recommended that before you
start the disk wipe operation, check the D:\Output folder to ensure that
all the relevant files were deleted.

The Disk Wipe utility affects the user disk and Printer disk.

Do not operate the Disk Wipe utility while another application is running.

The supported language is English.
