Security Kit Functions
The security kit enables overwriting and encryption.
Overwriting
The printer temporarily stores print jobs as data in the HDD, and prints
from that data. Users can also store various types of data in the HDD. As
the data storage area used for such data remains in the HDD as is until it
is overwritten by other data, the data stored here remains restorable using
special tools for undesirable use.
The security kit deletes and overwrites (hereinafter collectively referred to
as overwrite(s)) the unneeded data storage area used for the output data
or deleted data to ensure that data cannot be restored.
Overwriting is performed automatically, without user intervention.
Encryption
The printer stores Custom Box and Job Box data in the HDD. It means
the data could be possibly leaked or tampered with if the HDD is stolen.
The security kit encrypts data before storing it in the HDD. It guarantees
higher security because no data cannot be decoded by ordinary output or
operations.
Encryption is automatically performed and no special procedure is
required.

Instructions for General Users (for Both General Users and Administrators)
Note When you cancel a job, the printer immediately starts
overwriting the data that has been already stored in the HDD.
CAUTION Encryption helps enhance security. However, data stored
in a Custom Box or Job Box can be decoded by the normal printing
operation. Never store confidential data in a Custom Box or Job Box.
