Instructions for General Users (for Both General Users and Administrators) 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. Note When you cancel a job, the printer immediately starts overwriting the data that has been already stored in the HDD. 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. 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. Functions of Security Kit Security Kit 1.
