Hard Disk Data Encryption
The controller hard disk data encryption is enabled by default on your printer. This encryption feature
provides an additional level of data security on the printer, while operating at a low level within the
operating system. The impact on performance is very small.
Enabling or disabling disk encryption will result in a system reboot and a hard disk initialization. During
hard disk initialization, all customer information, folders, templates, and other information stored on
the disk will be lost.

Encryption Key For Confidential Data
When enabling Data Encryption, the system administrator may also create an Encryption Key For
Confidential Data. The system administrator may either verify the default encryption key, or enter a
new alpha-numeric string of up to 12 characters to be used by the encryption algorithm.
