C. Data Security
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX C3800 Series machines offer several
ways to protect and secure data. It is strongly recommended that a backup
and security system is in place, along with an antivirus protection system to
make sure that no data on the storage drives are lost, stolen, or compromised.
There are several security methods available from Canon U.S.A., Inc. that
appropriately addresses a customer’s need for securing data. If a customer
has any data security concerns, please contact the dealer for more
information.
• Customer Accessible SSD Initialization Function (Initialize All

CAUTION
Canon U.S.A., Inc. is not liable for any damages resulting from the loss
or corruption of data. (See “DISCLAIMER,” on p. ii for further details.)
1. Initialize All Data/Settings Function
The Initialize All Data/Settings function is a standard function on all
Canon devices. This setting is available in the Management Mode, to
which the system administrator must authenticate. Performing this
function, erases all user information on the storage drive of the machine
(e.g., contact information, Advance Box and Mail Box data, network
settings, and image data).
IMPORTANT
The Initialize All Data/Settings function deletes the FAT (File Allocation
Table) and overwrites the target SSD data area with “0” (zeros) one
time.
