Confidential Print menu
Menu item Description
Max Invalid PIN
Off
2–10
Limits the number of times an invalid PIN can be entered
Notes:
• Off is the default setting.
• This menu item appears only if a printer hard disk is installed.
• Once a limit is reached, the jobs for that user name and that PIN are deleted.
Job Expiration
Off
1 hour
4 hours
24 hours
1 week
Limits the amount of time a confidential job stays in the printer before it is
deleted
Notes:
• Off is the default setting.
• If the Job Expiration setting is changed while confidential jobs reside on
the printer RAM or printer hard disk, the expiration time for those print jobs
does not change to the new default value.
• If the printer is turned off, all confidential jobs held in printer RAM are
deleted.
Disk Wiping menu
Menu item Description
Automatic Wiping
Off
On
Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file
system from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk
is preserved, such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.
Automatic Wiping marks all disk space used by a previous job and does not
permit the file system to reuse this space until it has been sanitized.
Only Automatic Wiping enables users to activate disk wiping without having
to take the printer offline for an extended amount of time.
Notes:
• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk
is installed.
• Off is the default setting.
• Due to the large amount of resources required for Automatic Wiping,
activating this option may decrease printer performance, especially if the
printer requires hard disk space faster than it can be wiped and returned
to service.
