Enabling the Hard Drive Overwrite Security Option
When a file is deleted from the printer hard drive, only the file name is deleted. The data in the file
remains on the hard drive, regardless of the operating system. An unauthorized person could, possibly,
retrieve the data in the file that was deleted.
Printers with a hard drive have a Hard Drive Overwrite Security option. This option overwrites the data
stored on the hard drive of a file marked for deletion using DOD5200.28-M. DOD5200.28-M is a U.S.
Department of Defense three-pass overwriting process. The file's directory entry is removed and the
storage space on the hard drive is marked as available for reuse. The random pattern of bits stays on
the hard drive until it is overwritten by another file.
By default, the Hard Drive Overwrite Security option is disabled. To select the Hard Drive Overwrite
Security option, use one of the following methods:
•
The printer control panel
•
CentreWare IS
