disk, the "No Remaining Data" icon will still be lit after erasure is completed.

Auto Erase Memory

A print data sent from a printer driver is temporarily stored on the printer's hard disk. Even after the job is
completed, it remains in the hard disk as temporary data. Auto Erase Memory erases the temporary data
on the hard disk by writing over it.
Overwriting starts automatically once the job is completed.
If a print job is in progress, overwriting will only be done after the job is completed.
Using Auto Erase Memory
This can be specified by the machine administrator.
For details about logging in and logging out with administrator authentication, see p.25 "Logging in Using
Administrator Authentication", p.25 "Logging out Using Administrator Authentication".
• When Auto Erase Memory is set to [On], temporary data that remained on the hard disk when Auto
Erase Memory was set to [Off] might not be overwritten.
• If the main power switch is turned off before Auto Erase Memory is completed, overwriting will stop
and data will be left on the hard disk.
• Do not stop the overwrite mid-process. Doing so will damage the hard disk.
• Should the main power switch be turned off before Auto Erase Memory is completed, overwriting will
continue once the main power switch is turned back to [On].
