Hot Folder Backup

What is Hot Folder Backup?

The following information configured in a hot folder can be backed up or restored using the USB flash drive.

  • Hot folder setting configured with Print Manager (including the job ticket setting)

  • User setting of the hot folder configured on this machine

For details about the hot folder, refer to About Hot Folder or Overview of Hot Folder of the Machine.

Tips
  • This function is available when the hot folder setting is enabled.

  • When the setting registered in the restore destination is duplicated with the registration number of backup data, it is overwritten by the backup data. When the setting registered in the restore destination is not duplicated with the registration number of backup data, it is held without being overwritten.

  • When multiple backup data items are just under the USB flash drive, the file that has a larger number in the *** field of the file name is applied. Example: HotFolder_Backup_*** ("*" indicates the date and time at which data is saved.)
