Backup and Restore • The Configuration backup stores user customized settings only. The configuration backup allows for fast and efficient saving of user settings. Configuration backup allows for multiple versions, network backups, and quick restoration of user information. CAUTION: It is strongly recommended that a System Backup and Restore only be performed when directed by a Xerox customer service representative. When to restore a Configuration The following items detail when to use the backup and restore configuration option. • For restoring customer settings after a hardware or hard disk failure. • For restoration after a software installation that included an installation of the operating system. • When you only need to restore individual items, such as queue setups, custom security profiles, network and gateway settings, or paper stock or tray mappings. It is not recommended that jobs be backed up using the Configuration Backup. Use the Print Services feature to save jobs as TIFF or FRF files on the DocuSP controller or on another storage location. Using Print Services saves job ticket information as well as retaining color settings over software upgrades. It is recommended that the Configuration Backup process be performed in weekly or monthly intervals, and be completed during time when the printer is not in use, such as at night. The Configuration Backup file can be saved to a shared network drive. When to restore a System The following items detail when to use the backup and restore system option. • For restoring the system disk copy after a catastrophic software, operating system, other software failure. • To restore a known image of the entire system. • Do not use when restoring after a hard disk failure. 2-2 System Guide
