Overview
Non-volatile Memory (NVM) is memory that is not lost through a system power cycle or power loss.
NVM for the MFP is subdivided into two classes:
●
Customer NVM
●
Machine NVM
Customer NVM
Customer NVM is customer private data, such as:
●
Templates
●
E-mail addresses
●
Address lists
●
Passwords
The system administrator can use the embedded Web server (EWS) to back up customer NVM to an
external network drive.
This customer private data can only be accessed by system administrators. Field service personnel
cannot gain access to customer NVM. However, service personnel should have an understanding of
customer NVM if required to return a system to its complete state.
For details on Customer NVM, see the administrator guide.
Machine NVM
Machine NVM is data used by the system to operate as configured. Examples of machine NVM include
the following items:
●
Copy and print job settings
●
Preventive maintenance counters
●
Results of system calibrations
Machine NVM can only be backed up and stored by field service personnel.
Machine NVM backup
You can use CDFT to perform an NVM backup. The backup operation is performed on the entire system.
