Login Restriction

Login failures

1-10 (3 attempts)

Failure time frame

1-60 (5 minutes)

Lockout time

1-60 (5 minutes)

Panel Login Timeout

1-900 (3 seconds)

Remote Login Timeout

1-120 (10 minutes)

Limits the number and time frames of failed login attempts from the printer control panel before all users are locked out

Notes:

• “Login failures” specifies the number of failed login attempts before users are locked out. 3 attempts is the factory default setting.
• “Failure time frame” specifies the time frame during which failed login attempts can be made before users are locked out. 5 minutes is the factory default setting.
• “Lockout time” specifies how long users are locked out after exceeding the login failures limit. 5 minutes is the factory default setting.
• “Panel Login Timeout” specifies how long the printer remains idle on the Home screen before automatically logging the user off. 3 seconds is the factory default setting.
• “Remote Login Timeout” specifies how long a remote interface (for example, the Web page) can remain idle before automatically logging the user off. 10 minutes is the factory default setting.

Enable Drive

Enable

Enables or disables support for the front USB port.

Max Invalid PIN

Off

2–10

Limits the number of times an invalid PIN can be entered

Notes:

• Off is the default setting.
• This menu item appears only if a printer hard disk is installed.
• Once a limit is reached, the jobs for that user name and that PIN are deleted.

Job Expiration

Off

1 hour

4 hours

24 hours

1 week

Limits the amount of time a confidential job stays in the printer before it is deleted

Notes:

• Off is the default setting.
• If the Job Expiration setting is changed while confidential jobs reside on the printer RAM or printer hard disk, the expiration time for those print jobs does not change to the new default value.
• If the printer is turned off, all confidential jobs held in printer RAM are deleted.

Automatic Wiping

Single pass

Multiple pass

Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file system from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk is preserved, such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.

Automatic Wiping marks all disk space used by a previous job and does not permit the file system to reuse this space until it has been sanitized.

Only Automatic Wiping enables users to activate disk wiping without having to take the printer offline for an extended amount of time.

Notes:

• “Single pass” is the factory default setting.
• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is installed.
• Highly confidential information should be wiped using the “Multiple Pass” method only.
• Due to the large amount of resources required for Automatic Wiping, activating this option may decrease printer performance, especially if the printer requires hard disk space faster than it can be wiped and returned to service.

Manual Wiping

Do not start now

Start now

Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file system from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk is preserved, such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.

Manual Wiping overwrites all disk space that has been used to hold data from a print job that has been processed. This type of wiping does not erase any information related to an unprocessed print job.

Notes:

• “Do not start now” is the factory default setting.
• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is installed.
• If the Disk Wiping access control is activated, then a user must successfully authenticate and have the required authorization in order to initiate the disk wipe.

Automatic Method

• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is installed.
• Highly confidential information should be wiped using the “Multiple pass” method only.

Manual Method

Single pass

Multiple pass

Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file system from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk is preserved, such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.

Both manual and scheduled wiping allow the file system to reuse marked disk space without first having to wipe it.

Notes:

• “Single pass” is the factory default setting.
• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is installed.
• Highly confidential information should be wiped using the “Multiple pass” method only.

Scheduled Method

Single pass

Multiple pass

Disk Wiping erases only print job data that is not currently in use by the file system from the printer hard disk. All permanent data on the printer hard disk is preserved, such as downloaded fonts, macros, and held jobs.

Both manual and scheduled wiping allow the file system to reuse marked disk space without first having to wipe it.

Notes:

• “Single pass” is the factory default setting.
• This menu item appears only if a formatted, non-defective printer hard disk is installed.
• Highly confidential information should be wiped using the “Multiple pass” method only.
• Scheduled wipes are initiated without displaying a user warning or confirmation message.
