● Encryption Password
• It is necessary to set a password during the export process because data such as the password of the address book set by
the user are encrypted when the DCM file is exported/imported.
• The password must consist of 32 or less ASCII characters. A password exceeding 32 characters cannot be entered.
• If a wrong password is entered at import, the encrypted setting values cannot be decoded, and the import of the setting
values end with an error.
• It is necessary to specify a password even when the data to be exported does not contain any data to be encrypted. However,
in the case of export from service mode, it is not necessary to enter the password, and the password (28282828) is entered
automatically.
■ Specifications Related to Department ID Management
• Department ID information is exported only when the Department ID management setting is enabled.Regardless of the state
of the department ID management setting, the state of department ID management (enabled/disabled) and the system
administrator information are exported. The department ID counter is not exported.
• When importing department ID information, the import process differs depending on the combination of the department ID
set in the host machine and the department ID set in the data to be imported.
"ID_1" has not been set in the host
machine.
"ID_1" has been set in the host machine.
"ID_1" has been set in the data to be impor-
ted.
Information of "ID_1" is imported. The de-
partment ID counter is "0".
Information excluding the department ID
counter information of "ID_1" in the host ma-
chine is imported.
"ID_1" has not been set in the data to be im-
ported.
Not overwritten
Information of "ID_1" is deleted.
Department ID information has not been set
in the data to be imported.
Not overwritten
Not overwritten
* ID_1 indicates a department ID.
■ Specifications during Execution of a Process
Limitations
■ Job Control
Do not execute the following processes during import or export.
• Reception of a new job (Execution of calibration requested by the engine is allowed.)
• Firmware update (during which faxes cannot be received due to busy line.)
If any of the following conditions is met, import/export is not executed.
• A job exists. (If calibration is requested by the engine, import/export is executed, ignoring the calibration job.)
• A firmware update is being performed.
• Another import or export is being executed.
CAUTION:
During import, print/fax jobs from the PC are not received and are stuck in the spooler on the PC.Those jobs stuck in the
spooler may not be printed properly after reboot of the host machine. In that case, those jobs have not been received and
are not even recorded in history.
■ Control Characters
If the character string to be exported (e.g. a destination name in the address book) includes an ASCII control character (0x01-0x08,
0xb, 0xc, 0xe-0x19, or 0x7f), the character string excluding the control character is exported.
■ Corrective Processing
When data is imported, corrective processing of setting values (changing a process to another process that can be performed)
may be performed. Corrective processing is performed to process data so that it can be used by the import destination device.
