IMPORTANT
Before initiating the Initialize All Data/Settings mode, make sure that the data you are erasing is completely unnecessary. Note that Canon will not be liable for any damages resulting from the loss of data.
If the Copy Card Reader-F1 is attached to the machine, and does not operate properly after initializing the data, contact your local authorized Canon dealer.
To prevent other users from accidentally erasing all the data on the hard disk, it is recommended to register a System Manager ID and System PIN so that only the System Manager can perform this procedure.
Confirm that there are no current jobs being processed before using the Initialize All Data/Settings mode.
Backup or export any necessary data before erasing the data in the machine. You can backup or export the following data:
Data you can backup using the Remote UI
Mail box settings, stored files in the mail box, stored files in the Advanced Box, and registered forms for Superimpose Image (For information on backing up data, see "Backing Up Stored Data.")
Data you can export using the Remote UI
(Depending on the MEAP application, you may be able to backup this data. For more information, see the manual for the MEAP application you are using.)
User information authenticated by [User Access Control for the Advanced Box]
(For information on exporting user information, see "Exporting User Information.")
License files for MEAP applications
(For information on downloading license files, see "Managing Application Licenses.")
User authentication information registered in the Local Device Authentication system of SSO-H (Single Sign-On H)
(For information on exporting authentication information, see "Registering/Editing User Data for Local Device Authentication.")
Settings which can be sent using the Device Information Delivery mode
(Can only be backed up if you have another machine with the Device Information Delivery mode. It is not necessary to back up this data if you want to use the data already registered in the other machine. For more information on the Device Information Delivery mode, see "Specifying Device Information Delivery Settings.")
Data saved from MEAP applications
(Depending on the MEAP application, you may be able to back up this data. For more information, see the manual for the MEAP application you are using.)
