Erase Customer Data

Secure Storage Erase has traditionally referred to an erase operation that performed one of three

erase behaviors over the entirety of a physical disk. Newer devices offer a different type of secure

erase method, Erase Customer Data. Instead of erasing physical storage devices, the Erase Customer

Data operation acts on the logical notion of customer data. The user cannot select a physical disk

and request an erase. Instead, the user instructs the device to erase customer data with a Secure Fast

Erase or Secure Sanitizing Erase mode (see Figure 5).

Erase Customer Data will erase and overwrite all job data files stored on the disk including:

 Temporary data for print jobs

 Temporary data for copy, fax, e-mail, and send to network folder jobs

 Stored Jobs, Stored Fax jobs

The File Erase Modes available are:

 Non secure

 Secure Fast Erase

 Secure Sanitizing Erase
