● If this setting is changed from [Shared across All Devices] to [Device-Specific (Not Shared)] after starting
operation, the shared data is synchronized on all machines before switching. (All machines will have the
same data at first when the setting is switched.)
● If this setting is changed from [Device-Specific (Not Shared)] to [Shared across All Devices] after starting
operation, the data in each machine is initialized before synchronization.
● The settings in shared buttons (shared buttons on the Quick Menu) are also initialized when this setting is
changed from [Device-Specific (Not Shared)] to [Shared across All Devices]. (Imported wallpaper images
for the Quick Menu are also deleted.)
● The default job settings and setting history of the users registered in the server machine are initialized
when [Device-Specific (Not Shared)] is selected for [Data Sharing Details]. Configure these settings again if
they were changed from their default values.

● This operation is not required for the server machine.
● Data backed up to [Device] is automatically deleted when the next backup/restore operation is
performed. (The data is deleted even if the next backup/restore operation is performed for a network
destination.)
Changing the Scope of Sharing Data after Synchronization Has Been Started
● To change the scope of sharing data after synchronization has been started, stop synchronization on
all the client machines, change the scope of sharing, then start synchronization on all the client
machines again.
If the Data in a Specific Client Machine Differs from the Server Machine
● If the data is correctly synchronized in multiple client machines but not synchronized in a specific
client machine, follow the instructions displayed on the control panel.
● If the data in a specific client machine differs from the server machine but a message is not displayed,
delete the user settings information, and log in again. (
Information(P. 592) ) If the message <Synchronize Custom Settings: Log in again for
synchronization.> is displayed when logging in, log in again.
