Making Settings for Processing Saved Data

You can make settings for processing data stored in the internal hard disc.

Jobs for printing are temporarily saved to the hard disc in order to handle the data for authenticated printing and the large amount of printing, etc. Make settings to safely erase this data.

Sequential Deletion from Hard Disk

When enabled, the target data is erased sequentially when it becomes unnecessary, such as when printing is completed. The target to be deleted is data written while this function is enabled.

Because access to the hard disc is necessary, the time to enter power saving mode will be delayed.

Erase All Memory

Erases all data on the hard disc. You cannot perform other operations or turn off the device during formatting.

  • High Speed: Erases all data with a dedicated erase command.

  • Overwrite: Erases all data with a dedicated erase command, and overwrites other data in all areas to erase all data.

  • Triple Overwrite: Erases all data with a dedicated erase command, and overwrites other data in all areas three times to erase all data.
