Note to Administrator
This manual is intended to provide administrators with additional information
about the security functions of this printer. Read this manual as well as “Hard-
ware Guide” and “Software Guide”.
This manual and its contents should be kept by, and restricted to, administrators.
Network Configuration
Network Connection
The following explains the procedure for connecting the printer to the computer
through the network. Prepare the hub and other network devices before con-
necting the 10 BASE-T or 100 BASE-TX cable to the printer's Ethernet port. Al-
ternatively, the optional gigabit ethernet board, which supports 1000BASE-T, is
available.
Important
❒
Use shielded Ethernet cable. Unshielded cables create electromagnetic inter-
ference that could cause malfunctions.
❒
The Ethernet cable is not supplied with this printer. Select your cable accord-
ing to the network environment.
A
Attach one ferrite core at the printer end of the Ethernet cable, and then at-
tach the other ferrite core about 10 cm (4 inches) (1) from this core making
two loops as shown.
B
Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port.

C
Connect the other end of the cable to the printer's network, such as a hub.
Note
❒
The printer's ethernet and USB ports are not available when the gigabit
ethernet board is attached to the printer.
❒
Follow the same procedure when using the gigabit ethernet cable.

Deleting Data on the hard disk
❖
Hard disk
The printer’s hard disk lets you store data under the printer, as well as the ad-
dress book and counters stored under each user code.
Overwriting the Data on the hard disk
To use this function, the DataOverwriteSecurity unit must be installed.
To prevent data on the hard disk being leaked before disposing of the printer,
you can overwrite all data stored on the hard disk. You can also automatically
overwrite temporarily-stored data.
Note
❒
Depending on the hard disk capacity and the method of erasing the data, this action
may take a few hours. Once you start the “Erase All Memory” function, no other
printer operation is possible until the function completes or you quit the function.
❖
Auto Erase Setting
To erase selected data on the hard disk.
❖
Erase All Memory
To erase all the data on the hard disk.
❖
Methods of Erasing the Data
You can select the method of erasing the data from the following:
The default is
[
NSA
]
.
*1
National Security Agency
*2
Department of Defense
Reference
For details, see the manual supplied with the DataOverwriteSecurity unit.
NSA
*1
Overwrites the data on the hard disk twice with random numbers and
once with zeros.
DoD
*2
Overwrites the data with a number, its complement, and random num-
bers, and then checks the result.
Random
Overwrites the data with random numbers the specified number of times.
You can specify between 1 and 9 as the number of times the data is over-
written with random numbers. The default is 3 times.

[
Auto Erase
]
Setting
This can be specified by the machine administrator.
A print data sent from a printer driver is temporarily stored on the hard disk.
