Image Overwrite Security
Overview
Image Overwrite Security is available on printers configured with an optional hard drive and protects 
against unauthorized retrieval of confidential data from the machine by removing image data that is 
left when jobs are processed. When started, all of the physical areas of the hard disks holding job data 
are overwritten with a series of alphanumeric patterns.
There are two image overwriting security methods available:
On Demand Image Overwrite (ODIO)
This is the procedure to follow to install and setup the On Demand Image Overwrite security feature:

Overview
On Demand Image Overwrite is a security measure for customers who are concerned about 
unauthorized access and duplication of classified or private documents.
The On Demand Image Overwrite feature provides an on demand facility for a system administrator to 
erase all residual image data from the hard drive of the machine by overwriting those areas used by 
the machine to spool and temporarily store image data.
Note 
When ODIO is initiated, the machine is taken offline until the overwrite is completed and 
any existing jobs in the queue are terminated.
Standard and Full Overwrite
ODIO has the ability to perform Standard and Full Overwrites:
Standard ODIO will overwrite all jobs stored in image data. Standard ODIO will not overwrite 
folders created with the Save Job for Reprint feature, if these features are installed on the 
machine. Standard overwrite takes approximately 11 minutes.
Full ODIO will also overwrite any images that have been stored in folders created with the Save 
Job for Reprint feature. Full overwrite takes approximately 53 minutes to complete.
Information Checklist
Before starting the Installation procedure, please ensure that the following item or task is available or 
has been performed:

Ensure that the machine is fully functioning in its existing configuration.
