FIPS140-2 Data Encryption
All data stored on and transmitted by the printer is encrypted. Some services and protocols, such as
SMB, NetWare, SNMPv3, and the PDF Direct Print service do not use an encryption method that
complies with government standard FIPS140-2.
You can warn users with a control panel message when data is about to be transmitted that is not
encrypted to FIPS140-2 standard.
For more information, see the printer’s Security White Paper on the Xerox website.
To enable the warning message:
1. In CentreWare IS, click Properties > Security > FIPS140 Validation Mode.
2. Next to FIPS140 Validation Mode, select Enabled.
Note: FIPS 140-2 encryption does not apply to the following services and protocols: SMB,
NetWare, SNMPv3, PDF Direct Print Service.
