Backing Up the Machine's Settings

Click the [Backup Setting] tab on the administrator settings page to create backup files containing the machine's configuration settings. If necessary, these backup files can be used to restore previous configurations.

When sending the machine for repair, it is important that you create backup files in advance. The machine's settings are returned to the default after repair.
