Jobs On Disk; Disk Encryption; Erase All Information On Disk - Lexmark MS81x Service Manual

Jobs on Disk

This setting appears only if a hard disk is installed. It allows buffered jobs to be deleted from the disk. This does not
affect Print and Hold or parked jobs.

2
Select from the available options to change the setting:
•
Delete
• Do Not Delete (default)
3
Press X to return to the Configuration menu.

Disk Encryption

Warning—Potential Damage: If the settings are changed, then the printer completely formats the hard disk. All
information on the disk will be unrecoverable.
This setting appears only if a hard disk is installed. It controls whether the printer encrypts the information that it writes
to the hard disk.
To change the setting:
1
From the Configuration menu, navigate to Disk Encryption.
2
Select from the available options to change the setting.
• Enable—enables encryption of hard disk.
•
Disable (default)—enables formatting of hard disk.
3
Contents will be lost. Continue? appears. Select Yes to proceed with the encryption or formatting
of the disk, or No to cancel the operation. If Yes is selected, then a progress bar appears on the display that indicates
the overall completion of the selected operation. After completion, the display returns to Disk Encryption.

Erase All Information on Disk

This setting performs a wipe of the printer hard disk, erasing all data.
Warning—Potential Damage: This deletes all data on the printer hard disk, including downloaded fonts, macros, and
held jobs. Do not initiate a disk wipe if you have information on the printer that you want to save.
Available options:
•
Single Pass Erase—overwrites all data and the file system. This wipe is faster but less secure since it is possible to
retrieve the deleted data with forensic data‑retrieval techniques.
• Multi Pass Erase—overwrites all data without rewriting the file system. This wipe is DoD 5220.22-M compliant since
the deleted data is irretrievable.
Note: If the printer is reset while a disk wipe operation is executing, then Corrupt Disk appears upon regaining
power.
