Sharp MX-4100N EOL Hard Drive Erase | Print4Pay Hotel

Hi All,

I have a customer that has a Sharp MX-4100N and will not be renewing with their Sharp Dealer. What are their options for cleansing their Hard Drives at the End of Life (EOL) of their copier before they return it to the leasing company. We have the ability to do a secure erase on the models that we sell & support because we can reload system software on these models. Not being a Sharp Dealer we can not reload system software. Any thoughts on the best way to sanitize a Sharp MX-4100N Hard Drive?

Thanks,
Vince

Just remove HDD and replace with similar size drive. Sharp's system software is not on HDD. It is stored on EPROM's.

When machine first boots with new HDD, machine will format and partition drive as needed.
