Overwriting Image Data

To ensure that image data on the printer's hard drive cannot be accessed, you can delete and overwrite
image data. Image data is any and all in-process or temporary user data on the hard drive, such as
current jobs, queued jobs, temporary scan files, but not saved jobs or folders. By default, the printer
deletes and overwrites each job three times after it finishes processing.

1. At the printer control panel, press the Machine Status button, then touch the Tools tab.
