Page 177 highlights

Viewing flash memory and disk contents Select the Print Directory menu item from the Setup Menu to print a list of the resources stored on flash or disk. This list shows information such as remaining storage space, file names, and file sizes. You can also view the contents of flash memory or disk from MarkVision or by sending the PJL LPRINTDIRECTORY command. Refer to the Technical Reference for more information. Setting passwords You can set password protection for flash or disk devices, or for the files stored on the device. Flash or disk devices that are write protected cannot be formatted or selected as a download target, and their contents cannot be deleted, renamed, or updated. Read/write passwords ensure that the files cannot be viewed or printed unless the correct password is specified. A read/write password takes precedence over a write password. Note: Only one password can be applied to any resource. You can use passwords to protect data from corruption or loss, or to prevent access by unauthorized personnel. For example, you might set read/write protection on a signature macro file on a flash device to ensure the signature is used only by people who know the password. You might also set write protection on the entire device so all other files can be used, but not changed, during the normal course of business. If you lose or forget a password, contact the Lexmark Customer Support Center. Security for the printer requires that both you and Lexmark provide independent information to recover a password. For details on how to use passwords to protect resources, refer to the printer Technical Reference. Deleting files When you delete a file from flash or disk, the complete file is removed and the space it occupied is immediately available for other purposes. Managing memory 177

Managing memory

Viewing flash memory and disk contents
Select the Print Directory menu item from the Setup Menu to print a list of the resources
stored on flash or disk. This list shows information such as remaining storage space, file
names, and file sizes.
You can also view the contents of flash memory or disk from MarkVision or by sending the
PJL LPRINTDIRECTORY command. Refer to the
Technical Reference
for more informa-
tion.
Setting passwords
You can set password protection for flash or disk devices, or for the files stored on the
device.
Flash or disk devices that are
write
protected cannot be formatted or selected as a down-
load target, and their contents cannot be deleted, renamed, or updated.
Read/write
passwords ensure that the files cannot be viewed or printed unless the correct
password is specified. A read/write password takes precedence over a write password.
Note:
Only one password can be applied to any resource.
You can use passwords to protect data from corruption or loss, or to prevent access by
unauthorized personnel. For example, you might set read/write protection on a signature
macro file on a flash device to ensure the signature is used only by people who know the
password. You might also set write protection on the entire device so all other files can be
used, but not changed, during the normal course of business.
If you lose or forget a password, contact the Lexmark Customer Support Center. Security
for the printer requires that both you and Lexmark provide independent information to
recover a password.
For details on how to use passwords to protect resources, refer to the printer
Technical
Reference
.
Deleting files
When you delete a file from flash or disk, the complete file is removed and the space it
occupied is immediately available for other purposes.
