Completely Erasing Unnecessary Data from the Hard Disk

If the Data Erase Kit is enabled, data is automatically and completely erased when it is deleted from the hard disk. This is to ensure that no trace of the data remains on the hard disk. You can select the Deletion mode and timing for erasing data from the hard disk.

The following data is completely erased from the hard disk:

  • Image data created when scanning
  • Remaining data after the files in the mail box/Advanced Box are deleted
  • Remaining data after the files in the Fax/I-Fax Inbox (Confidential Fax Inbox/Memory RX Inbox) are deleted
  • Sent and received fax/I-fax data
  • Spooled data
  • Data temporarily stored as print data

Remark
  • For instructions on obtaining and registering a license key, see Chapter 9, "Installing the System Options/MEAP Applications," in Getting Started.
  • You cannot use the machine while data is being erased from the hard disk. It may also take some time until the machine becomes ready to scan once the data is completely erased.
  • The performance of the machine may degrade when processing jobs.
