Theory of Operation
Electrophotographic Process
This color laser printer uses the Electrophotographic process (EP Process) to image toner onto the media
via a tandem (in-line) system. This system contains four toner cartridge assemblies (cyan, yellow,
magenta, and black). The Electrophotographic Process steps are as follows:
EP Step
Function
Charge
The Photoconductor Drum surface is charged with electricity from the Bias Charge
Roll.
Expose
The Laser (Printhead) exposes the photoconductor with light and creates a Latent
Image on the surface. The latent image has a different charge than the rest of the
Photoconductor surface.
Develop
Toner from the Developer Roll adheres to the latent image on the surface of the
Photoconductor. This happens because of the difference in charge potential between
the two surfaces.
st
st
1 Transfer
nd
Transfer
An electrical charge is sent to each of the four 1 Transfer Rolls inside the Transfer
Module (Transfer Belt). Due to the difference in charge potential, toner is transferred
from the Photoconductor to the surface of the Transfer Module as it passes each
photoconductor.
Media passes between the Transfer Roller and Transfer Module surfaces. An
electrical charge is sent to the Transfer Roller to create a difference in charge
potential. This causes the toner image to transfer from the Transfer Module to the
surface of the media.
Fuse
Toner is bonded permanently to the media by heat and pressure.
Clean/Erase
The Photoconductor and Transfer Module Belt surfaces are cleaned of residual toner.
This printer does not have erase lamps.
If a component fails, it is important to recognize at which step the failure took place. By knowing this, you
can determine the source of the problem. Understanding the EP Process is the key to troubleshooting
print quality problems.
The next few pages illustrate the various EP Process steps with a cross-sectional of a
CX310/CX410/CX510 printer.

Rev 1.4
Charge
During the charge step, voltage is sent from the high-voltage power supply to the charge roller located
beside each of the four photoconductors (the charge roller is part of the photoconductor unit).
The charge roller puts a uniform negative charge over the entire surface of the photoconductor to prepare
it for exposure by the laser beam.
Charge Rollers
Photoconductors
17
10/31/2012
Rev 1.4
Expose
During the expose step, the laser fires a focused beam of light at the surface of each color
Photoconductor and writes an invisible image called a latent image or electrostatic image. This invisible
image is created by discharging the Photoconductors only where the laser beam strikes its surface. This
creates a difference in charge potential between the exposed area and the rest of the photoconductor
surface.
Service Tips:
The laser beam passes through a glass lens as it exits the laser unit. If this lens gets contaminated with toner or other
debris, it will cause vertical streaking of white/lightness on the page. Cleaning the lens will solve the problem.
Never touch the surface of the photoconductor with your bare hand. The oil from your skin may cause a charge
differential on the surface and toner will not stick properly. The result would be repeating blotches of voids/light print
on a page. Then the photoconductor will have to be replaced.
The surface of the photoconductor is coated with an organic substance that makes it sensitive to light. Be sure and
cover the photoconductor when you are working on the printer so you dont burn it. If exposed to light for too long, it
will cause light/dark print quality problems and have to be replaced.

Develop
Once the laser exposes the Photoconductor, the HVPS sends charge to the Developer Roll. For each
color, the Developer Roll engages the Photoconductor so it is in contact with the surface. Because of the
charge difference between the toner on the Developer Roller and the electrostatic image on the
Photoconductor, toner only attracts to the Photoconductor where the laser exposed the surface.
This process would be similar to using glue to write on a can and then rolling it over glitter. The glitter
sticks to the glue but wont stick to the rest of the can.
Service Tips:
Never touch the surface of the developer roller with your bare hand. The oil from your skin may cause a charge
on a page. Then the affected Developer Unit will have to be replaced.
If the developer roller is damaged, it will not contact the surface of the photoconductor properly. The result could be
repeating marks, thin vertical voids or thin vertical lines of color on the printed page. Check the surface of the
developer for damage.

1st Transfer
When the latent images are developed on each Photoconductor, the high-voltage power supply sends
st
voltage to the 1 Transfer Rollers inside the Transfer Module.
st
The charge difference between the developed toner image on the Photoconductor surface and the 1
Transfer Rollers causes the images to transfer to the surface of the Transfer Module belt for each color.
This takes place by a direct surface-to-surface contact between the Photoconductors and the Transfer
Module belt.
Service Tips:
Never touch the surface of the Transfer Module belt with your bare hand. The oil from your skin will cause a charge
on a page. Then the Transfer Module belt will have to be replaced.
Dont use solvents or other cleaners to clean the Transfer Module belt surface. No matter how careful you are, the
surface will be compromised causing scratches or a charge differential that will produce a void or light blotch on the
printed page. Then the Transfer Module belt will need to be replaced.

2nd Transfer
Once the four planes of color are transferred to the Transfer Module from the Photoconductors, the image
is carried towards the Transfer Roll (this is part of the Transfer Module assembly). The media is picked
from the input source and timed to pass between the Transfer Module Belt and Transfer Roll when the
image on the Belt reaches the second transfer area.
The high voltage power supply sends voltage to the Transfer Roll to create a positive charge. As the
media passes between the Transfer Module and Transfer Roll, the entire image is transferred to the
media due to the charge differential between the negative toner on the Transfer Module Belt and the
positive Transfer Roller.
Service Tips:
If the transfer roller has nicks, pits or flat spots on it, the surface doesnt come into contact with the media and transfer
unit properly. This will cause voids or lights spots on the page or repeating voids/light areas, because the toner cant
be fully transferred due to the charge difference in the areas of damage.
If the transfer roller does not engage the transfer unit, or does not have voltage coming from the high voltage power
supply, the toner will not fully transfer from the transfer unit; the entire page will be very light or blank. Any toner that
does transfer will be due to a contact transfer instead of a charge transfer. Check the high-voltage power supply
contacts to the transfer roller.

Fuse
Once the image has been fully transferred to the media, the Transfer Roller helps move the paper into the
Fuser area.
The Fuser applies heat and pressure to the page to melt the tiny toner particles and bond them
permanently to the media.
Service Tips:
If the fuser rollers are damaged, they can cause toner to be pulled off the page or cause paper jams. Toner that rubs
off a printed page can be a sign of a malfunctioning fuser or an improper media setting. Always check the paper type
setting before replacing the fuser. A common mistake is to print on heavier media (such as cardstock) with the paper
type set to plain paper.
Never pull un-fused toner through the fuser if you can help it; try to back the jammed page out of the fuser in the
opposite direction it was traveling.

Clean/Erase
There are two main cleaning processes that take place during the EP Process. One process cleans the
Transfer Module Belt and the other cleans the Photoconductors.
Transfer Unit Clean
Once the image on the Transfer Module Belt is transferred to the media, the Cleaning Blade scrapes any
residual toner left on the surface of the Belt. This waste toner is carried by an auger system to the Waste
Toner Box.
Photoconductor Clean/Erase
After each plane of color is transferred to the Transfer Module Belt from the Photoconductors, a Cleaning
Blade scrapes the residual toner from the surface of each Photoconductor. This printer does not have
erase lamps.
Once complete, the Photoconductor surface is prepared to begin the EP cycle once again.

Paper Transport System

The CS310/CS410/CS510 and CX310/CX410/CX510 printers have a C shaped paper path. Paper is
fed from the bottom rear of the printer and travels upward through the front cover.
Not all models come standard with a duplex capability and adding duplex later is not an option. The unit
is integrated into the front cover and Tray 1. When duplexing, the fuser rollers reverse causing the paper
to partially exit the printer and then retract back into the printer. This is called a peek-a-boo method.
Service Tips
While paper is being transported through the duplex unit, it is the only piece of paper being processed by the print
engine. If the printer is in the process of duplexing and a sheet of paper is loaded into the Manual Feeder, a jam will
occur.
Unlike most printers, these printers do not have registration rollers due to the short paper path in the
printer. Instead, the printer uses an encoder wheel to time the paper entering the EP Process at the right
moment. The encoder wheel is located in the middle of the Autocompensator Assembly.

ADF Theory of Operation: CX310/CX410/CX510

A duplex ADF enables the user to create duplex scans automatically thus eliminating the need to
manually flip the document. The ADF uses DC motors with encoder wheels and a series of sensors to
determine the position of the media in the paper path during the scan process. The following steps are
performed in creating a duplex scan on a duplex ADF.
Step
Function
The scanner control unit (on the controller board) receives a command to create a scan, fax, or copy.
A signal is sent to the ADF to poll the document sensor to check if the media to be scanned is in the correct position.
Media must be placed in the ADF input tray so it actuates the document sensor. If the ADF document sensor isnt
actuated, a flatbed scan is run by default.
If the media actuates the document sensor, then an ADF scan is executed. At this point, the pickup roller on the pick
arm assembly drops and advances the paper into the ADF. To minimize the possibility of multiple sheets being fed, the
ADF uses a separator roll that counter-rotates against the feed direction. After passing the pick assembly, the media
actuates the stage and interval sensors. Actuating these sensors indicates this will be the first side of the document to
be scanned.
The stage sensors are used to determine and correct document skew if it is present. If the stage sensors actuate at
different times, the paper is slowly fed to the paper feed 1 roller. The feed motor encoder wheel count tracks the paper
location in the paper path.
The paper feed 1 roller is stationary and acts as a registration roll which causes the paper to de-skew.
When the encoder count reaches a certain point, the paper feed 1 roller advances the de-skewed paper to the paper
feed 2 roller and feed sensor. If the paper does not actuate the feed sensor before the pre-determined encoder count
is attained, a paper jam error is generated.
When the feed sensor actuates, the paper advances to the scan area. While the paper is advancing to the scan area,
the DC motor encoder generates a count which is stored in an on-board counter. These counters, in conjunction with
the feed sensor, ensure the media is travelling at the correct speed through the scan area. The speed of the document
through the ADF scan area is dependent on the image DPI which is specified by the user.
After a predetermined number of counts, the media reaches the scan area and the image acquisition process is
initiated. While the image acquisition process is executing, the feed sensor is polled to determine if the trailing edge of
the media has reached the sensor.
Once the trailing edge of the scan media reaches the feed sensor, the sensor switches off. Once off, the image
acquisition process continues for a predetermined length of time.
10
When the image acquisition process completes, the trailing edge of the media continues to the reverse point. If the
scan job is simplex, the media advances to the exit roller and exits the ADF.
11
If the scan job is duplex, however, the feed motor reverses with a swing gear as the trailing edge of the media reaches
the reverse point. The swing gear moves the diverter gate to the down position.
12
The reversed exit roll pulls the paper back into the ADF. The eject 2 roll moves the media to the duplex sensor. Once
the duplex sensor actuates, it signals the control board that this is the second side of the media to be scanned and the
exit roll stops rotating.
13
After the media actuates the duplex sensor, the eject 2 roll moves the media to the paper feed 1 roll and the feed
sensor. Like the first pass of the media, the image acquisition process is repeated for the second side of the media.
14
When the trailing edge of the media reaches the reverse point the second time, the swing gear moves the diverter gate
to the down position and exit roll reverses. The paper moves back into the ADF unit for a third time. The paper passes
through the paper path, but no imaging occurs. This pass turns the paper over to the original side up. On the third
pass of the media trailing edge over the reverse point, the eject two roller does not reverse and the paper passes out of
the ADF.

Supply Life Messaging Information

Menus Page
The menus page will no longer provide supplies status information. Instead, supplies status will be
provided by printing its own unique Supplies Status Page.
Supplies Status Page

A new item is to be added to the Reports selections via the Control Panel: Supplies Status Page.
The Supplies Status Page gives customers, TSC and technicians the ability to print the supplies status
without any other information on the page.
When the Supply Status Page function is selected, it will print the status information for all the supplies
installed in the printer. Only the supply items for a particular product will be shown in this status report.
For example, a product consisting of a toner cartridge and an imaging unit would not display a status for a
photoconductor or developer.
Device Statistics Page

The device statistics page no longer provides supplies status. Instead, when the device statistics page
is selected the product will first print the supplies status page followed by the device statistics printed on
a separate page. This is to ensure the supplies status information is always provided in the same
manner, thus avoiding inconsistency between the Supply Status Page and the Device Statistics for supply
information.

Detection of Non-Genuine Supplies

When the printer senses that the Imaging Unit or Toner Cartridge is a non-genuine Lexmark supply, the
printer will post this error message:
Non-Lexmark [supply], see Users Guide [33.xy]
In this case, the control panel will instruct the User to refer to the Troubleshooting Section of the Users
Guide for instructions on how to proceed.
The Users Guide warns the customer about potential risks using non-genuine supplies. If the customer
wishes to accept the risk, they are instructed to press a special key sequence simultaneously for 15
seconds. In response, the printer will continue and note the customer acceptance occurred. In addition,
the bottom of the Device Statistics page will denote that the customer has accepted the non-genuine
supply.
The following is the message that will appear on the Device Statistics page:
If the customer accepts the risks of using non-genuine supplies or parts, errors posted by exposed
supplies/devices will include an N at the end of the error number string.
Example: Cyan imaging unit near end of life 84.21N or Paper Jam 200.13N
The customer may decide not to accept the risks associated with using non-genuine Lexmark supplies or
parts. This is done by not pressing the special key sequence as described above in the Users Guide;
instead, the customer must remove the non-genuine Lexmark supply or part and replace it with a genuine
Lexmark supply or part.

Print Quality Diagnostic Tips

General Terminology
Before diagnosing print quality problems, take a moment to understand the concepts below. This will
prevent confusion when diagnosing or escalating a problem.
Know your paper orientation when diagnosing a print quality issue.
References to direction such as horizontal and vertical must be made holding the paper in portrait
orientation (long edges to the left and right) with the printed side facing you. Dont hold the paper in
landscape orientation. See below.
Know the direction of the print when diagnosing a print quality issue.
References to the Process or the Scan direction refer to the direction in which the paper travels
through the printer.
Scan or Scanning is the direction in

which the LED or laser writes to the
photoconductor and is across the
paper path.
Process is the papers direction

through the printer that corresponds to
the rotation of the photoconductors.

Print Quality Rules of Thumb

If you encounter print quality problems, follow the tips below. Following these simple rules may solve the
problem easily and quickly.
Always run a new Settings/Configuration page showing the:
Page Count Is it time for a maintenance kit?
Supply Life are any of the supplies low or exhausted?
Firmware/Code Levels Are the code levels old/obsolete?
Media Settings does the printer media settings match whats in the Trays?
Always check the Media Type and Size used.
Is the media used within the printers manufacturing specification?
Are the printer and/or Driver set correctly for the paper type/size?
Always print the printers Self-Test pages.
How does the print vary from what is expected?
Try reseating the supplies.
Check for damage as you reseat them.
For tricky problems, think about the EP Process Steps. Eliminate the components/areas that
couldnt cause the problem until you are finally left with what could.
Starter cartridges cannot be swapped between printers for troubleshooting purposes as it will post an
error message.

Paper Transport Diagnostic Tips

Paper Rules of Thumb
Paper jams and feed problems occur for numerous reasons. Sometimes, failure of the equipment is the
cause or it can be the result of other external factors. Before replacing parts for a feed problem, ask
these questions:
Is the customer using a supported media type? This is a common problem. Check the
printer specifications if you are not sure.
Is the customer using a supported media size? Check the printer specifications of you
are not sure.
Is the customer using a supported media weight? This is a common problem. Check the
printer specifications of you are not sure.
Have you tried printing with a fresh ream of paper? Paper that is left out of the package
for periods of time can dry out or absorb moisture.
Have you tried printing from a different input source? This will help narrow down the
cause of some problems.
Is too much paper loaded in the Tray? Make sure the stack height does not exceed the
indicated maximum height.
Is the paper in the Tray wrinkled, creased, damp, or curled? Paper will not feed properly
if it is damaged. Try a fresh ream of paper.
Are different media types and/or weights loaded in the Tray? This will cause misfeeds.
Is the relative humidity too high? Too low? This can affect the media and/or printer and
its ability to feed properly. Check the printer specifications to see if it is located in an ambient
environment.
Is the paper loaded properly in the Tray or option? This is a common problem.
Reposition the paper in the Tray or option to make sure that is loaded properly. The paper
guides should be flush against the media, but not too tight.
Are the feed rollers worn because it is time for a maintenance kit? Check the page
count of the printer to see if it is time for a maintenance kit to be installed.
Are there any obstructions in the paper path? If paper, staples, paper clips or other items
are left in the printer, they can prevent the media from feeding properly.
Save yourself time and effort and always check these external influences before spending time
troubleshooting a supposed equipment failure.

Scanner Calibration in Diagnostic mode; used to calibrate both the Black and white values
for the ADF and the flatbed.
Scanner Manual Registration located in the Configuration Menu; manually registers the
flatbed and ADF on the MFPs scanner unit.
Top Cover
The instructions for removing and installing the top cover are lengthy. In addition, you need to make sure
the drive belt is attached to the fuser gear.
Controller Board
This part contains Mirrored NVRAM, so it should never be replaced at the same time as other Mirrored
NVRAM components. See the Mirrored NVRAM Components section in this guide for complete details
and exceptions.
Service Tips:
Verify the cable from the HVPS is seated properly after replacing the Controller Board - the connector may have been
loosened at the HVPS. Printing blank pages could be an indication that toner is applied to the Transfer Module belt
but not transferred. This can cause massive amounts of toner to be cleaned by the Transfer Module cleaner.
The following adjustments need to be performed after this board is replaced: 1) Scanner Manual
Registration and 2) Motor Detect.
In addition, the Controller Board contains the default and custom eSF applications and settings. These
are NOT contained in the NVRAM or on a hard drive, therefore, a Controller Board failure could result in
loss of these applications and their settings if they are not backed up. When a new Controller Board is
installed, the Lexmark default eSF applications and settings are loaded.
The best practice is for an administrator to have their eSF applications and settings backed up prior to
encountering a problem. In case this hasnt been done, an attempt to back up the data should be
performed before replacing the Controller Board.
87

Control Panel
This part contains Mirrored NVRAM, so it should never be replaced at the same time as other Mirrored
NVRAM components. See the Mirrored NVRAM Components section in this guide for complete details
and exceptions.
Printhead
After the Printhead is replaced, you need to align the color planes to prevent print quality problems. To
align the Printhead do the following:
1. Complete the Registration in the Diagnostic menu to adjust the Black plane.
2. Once the black plane is aligned, complete the Alignment in Diagnostics menu to adjust the
color planes.
Transfer Module
When a new Transfer Module is installed, it must be configured in the Diagnostic Menu. Each Transfer
Module has a barcode that contains 16 digits. Before installing the new part, write down the number
associated with the bar code.
Any time a Transfer Module is installed, the 16-digit number has to be entered into the printer menus.
This is especially important if it is installed as part of a maintenance kit; if the number is not entered, the
printer will continue to post maintenance messages. Once installation is complete, go to Printer Setup in
the Diagnostic Menu and select the Transfer Module Barcode menu to enter the number. See the
Service Manual chapter Service Menus for the steps to perform this procedure.
Fuser
The fuser removal is lengthy and could potentially result in damage to the fuser cable or the fuser exit
sensor. In addition, there is risk of losing two springs that need to be unhooked from both sides of the
fuser and a grounding washer. Follow the removal procedure carefully to minimize the risk of damage.
Any time a new fuser is installed, the fuser count must be reset. This is especially important if the fuser is
installed as part of a maintenance kit; if the count is not reset, the printer will continue to post
maintenance messages. Go to Diagnostic Menu, navigate to Printer Setup>Reset Fuser Count and
reset the counter.
Toner Density Sensor

The value of the toner density sensor (also called toner patch sensor or TPS) is set at manufacturing. If a
sensor is replaced, enter the 32-digit hexadecimal toner density value (TPS) value from the bar code next
to the sensor. Enter Diagnostics menu and select TPS Setup.

Warning! When replacing multiple NVRAM components, replace ONE component at a time NEVER
replace both at once.
If the Control Panel and the controller board are being replaced at the same time, replace the parts in this
order to avoid damage to the machine:
1. Replace the controller board first.
Note: Do not replace the new control panel and controller board in the machine at the same
time.
2. After installing the new controller board, and before installing the new control panel or UICC
Card, start the printer into Diagnostics mode.
3. After the printer has completed startup, turn off the printer and replace the control panel.
Note: If the Control Panel display failed, the printers startup cycle is complete when the
driver motor and fans shut down, and the machine is quiet.
4. After installing the new control panel or UICC Card, start the printer into Diagnostics mode,
and allow the printer to go through a complete startup cycle and the display to go to Ready.
5. If the problems persist, leave the new Control Panel or UICC Card in the machine, place the
old controller board back in the machine, and start it up. After the machine startup, shut down
the machine, and install the new controller board. After installing the new controller board,
restart the machine, and let it go through the startup cycle.

Firmware and Functionality Changes

Auto Reboot Error Recovery
The goal of allowing the printer to auto-reboot when a catastrophic error occurs is to decrease customer
interventions and increase printer up-time. The types of errors that could auto reboot include:
91y.xx Engine Firmware Errors

976.xx Network Firmware Errors
900.xx RIP Firmware Errors
Note: Be aware that not all of the Engine Firmware Errors will allow an auto-reboot. The
engine will inform the Controller Board if an Auto Reboot is allowed for the particular error.
Auto Reboot (Error Recovery) configuration and settings are shown in the following table:
Function
Configurable In:
Settings
Sets the printer to restart when an error is encountered.
Customer Menus (UI)

count.
The number of reboots encountered over the lifetime of the
printer. This setting is to be used as diagnostic data. This
setting can be reset to zero by MPS or by the Embedded Web
Page.
Embedded Web Server
If a printer crashes but does not auto reboot, the traditional error screen displays on the control panel
listing the error information.
When a re-bootable crash occurs, the printer shows the traditional error screen with an additional
message that informs the user the printer will reboot. The Error screen displays while the printer gathers
debug information and writes it to flash (about 10 seconds). Once the debug collection occurs, the printer
will reboot.
After rebooting, a message will be present informing the user the printer rebooted. The user must clear
this error in order to continue using the printer. While this message is present, the printer is off-line and
will not accept print jobs. See the images on the following page.

Safe Mode
Safe Mode is a new and configurable state in the device that allows print operations to be used even if a
non-critical subsystem failure occurs. When configured in Safe Mode, the device operates in a
minimal/base function state for print operations, permitting a customer to continue printing until service
can be arranged to repair the device.
Warning! Safe Mode is intended as a shortterm workaround and should only be used when a
critical print job must be completed before service can be arranged to repair the printer. In most
customer situations, it would NOT be appropriate to enable this mode. See the table below called When
Should Safe Mode be Enabled? for examples.
Warning! The printer must be returned to standard operating mode before diagnostics can be run or
fullfunction printing can continue. This is IMPORTANT! If a customer reports problems with no duplex
capability and/or the inability to select optional input trays, etc., check to see if Safe Mode is enabled a
warning message will display on the Control Panel.
When Safe Mode is enabled, print jobs are processed based on the product-specific behavior of the
print engine as defined for that mode of operation. Certain service failures and other errors are
suppressed when the device is in this mode so the device is left in a temporary usable state.
When Safe Mode is disabled, if any service failure or other error occurs, the device will follow existing
messaging behavior and the print operation will be terminated. The device may also shut down due to
certain failures based on existing definitions.
When Should Safe Mode be Enabled?

Problem Example
Hypothetical Customer Situation
Enable Safe Mode? Why/Why Not?
23y.xx Jams on Power-up

Duplex sensor broken
Customer has a deadline to complete an

important print job before the end of the
day Service cannot be dispatched until
tomorrow.
YES. The customer has a critical need to

continue printing. Safe Mode will disable the
duplex and allow the customer to continue to
print at reduced functionality.
200.xx Jams on Power-up

Tray 1 Input sensor broken
Customer needs to complete a print job

to send to a publisher by the end of the
day. They only have 5 more pages left to
print from the job. Service will not be out
until tomorrow.
NO. The customer has a critical need to

continue printing; however, Safe Mode will not
disable Tray 1. For this printer, Safe Mode
ignores all Input Options: Tray 2, Tray 3, etc. but
Tray 1 functionality remains enabled.
242.xx Jams on Power-up

Tray 2 Input sensor broken
The customer is printing PowerPoint

handouts for a meeting next week. They
only had a few pages left to print.

The information/features of this function include:
tracking event types, export capabilities, log full
behavior, and more.
The benefits of enabling Audit Logging include:

mitigating exposures through event tracking,
proactively tracking and identifying potential risks,
and integration with your intrusion detection
system for proactive real-time tracking. There are
over 100 variables and events tracked within the
device.
Digitally Signed
Firmware Updates
Printers and MFPs automatically inspect

downloaded firmware updates for the appropriate
Lexmark digital signatures. Firmware thats not
correctly packaged and signed by Lexmark is
rejected.
This ensures that non-approved firmware is never

run on the devices, which avoids exposing them to
malicious software, such as viruses and worms.
Certificate
Management
Printers and MFPs use certificates for HTTPS,

SSL, IPSec, and 802.1x authentications.
The Certificate Management feature allows the

devices to integrate with a PKI environment by
allowing the certificates to be signed; allows the
devices to trust certificate authorities in the PKI
environment.
HTTPS
HTTPS provides a means to securely manage

networked printers and MFPs
It allows Web traffic to be encrypted so that remote

management via the device web page can be
performed securely.
SNMPv3
SNMP is a standard network management

protocol. Version 3 of the protocol includes
extensive security capabilities.
Lexmark printers and MFPs support SNMPv3,

including the authentication and data encryption
components, allowing for secure remote
management of the devices.
Secure Password
Reset
The Secure Password Reset feature can reset the

access control setting on the devices Security
menu to allow access in the event that an
administrative password is lost or forgotten, or
when the device has lost network connectivity.
A two factor method of resetting a device without

compromising the security of the device with an
administrative backdoor.
TCP Connection
Filtering
Printers and MFPs can be configured to allow

TCP/IP connections only from a specified list of
TCP/IP addresses.
Protects the device against unauthorized printing

and configuration.
Port Filtering
The network ports through which printers and

MFPs listen for or transmit network traffic are
configurable, allowing a huge degree of control
over the devices network activity
By filtering out traffic on specific network ports,

protocols such as telnet, FTP, SNMP, HTTP and
many others can be explicitly disallowed
LDAP Address
Book Lookup
When sending e-mails or faxes, users can look up

the recipients e-mail addresses and fax numbers.
Ensures a document goes to the appropriate

person.
Secure LDAP
All LDAP traffic to and from Lexmark devices can

be secured with TLS/SSL.
LDAP information such as credentials, names, email addresses and fax numbers exchanged over
a TLS/SSL connection ensures the information is
encrypted to preserve the confidentiality and
privacy of the data.
Access Controls
Access controls allow you to choose from a dropdown list of available security templates to control
local and remote access to specific menus,
functions and workflows. It also provides the ability
to disable functions entirely.

Control Panel Lock
Allows a device to be put in a locked state so that

the Control Panel cannot allow any user
operations or configuration. It cannot copy or scan
jobs, it cannot be reconfigured via the Control
Panel, and incoming jobs will not sit exposed in
the output bin.
Helps keep the device and information sent to the

device secure in environments where a device
may be unmonitored for a long period of time such
as after work hours or weekends.
Confidential Print
Print jobs are held in RAM or on the hard disk until

the intended recipient enters the appropriate PIN,
allowing the job to print. Held jobs can be set to
expire after an elapsed time (configurable from
one hour to one week). In addition, a limit can be
set on the number of times a PIN can be entered
incorrectly before the corresponding jobs are
purged.
This controls unauthorized viewing of hard copy

documents sent to the printer. (Not Applicable
to the CS310)
Non-Volatile
Memory Wipe
This function is highly recommended when the

device is taken out of service or removed from a
secure location. The non-volatile memory wipe
provides a tool for erasing all contents stored on
the various forms of flash memory contained on
the device. This feature is a complete clearing of
all settings, solutions, jobs and faxes on the
device.
Provides greater customer confidence that data

will not fall into the hands of a malicious individual.
Physical Lock
Support
Lexmark printers and MFPs support Kensingtonstyle locks, which allow the devices to be
physically secured.
Locking a printer or MFP also locks down the

metal cage that houses the hard disk and other
optional components, helping to prevent tampering
or theft.
Security and Privacy Features: CS510 and CX510 with a Hard disk
Feature
Function
Benefit
Incoming Fax
Holding
Lexmark devices can be configured to hold rather

than print incoming faxes during scheduled times.
Incoming faxes are held securely on the hard disk
until the proper credentials have been entered on
the Lexmark device.
This controls unauthorized viewing of hard copy

documents faxed to a device after normal working
hours. (Not applicable to the CS510)
Hard Disk
Encryption
Hard disks in printers and MFPs can be configured

to use encryption. An AES key, up to 256-bits, is
internally generated by the printer or MFP and
used to encrypt all data on the hard disk. The key
is stored non-contiguously on the device, making
the contents of the hard disk accessible only on
the original printer or MFP.
The data on a stolen hard disk would not be

accessible even if the hard disk was installed in an
identical model of printer or MFP.
Automatic Hard
Disk Wiping
The data on a hard disk is immediately sanitized

so that no residual data can be read. The system
administrator has the ability to choose a single or a
multi-pass wipe, which conforms to NIST/DOD
standards, on the device immediately follow the
completion of a job (printed, copied, faxed and/or
scanned).
This prevents a malicious user from gaining

access to sensitive residual data that was printed
copied, faxed, and/or scanned on a Lexmark
device.
End of Life Disk

Wiping
Designed to be utilized when the Lexmark device

is to be retired, recycled, or otherwise removed
from a customers secure environment, an out-ofservice wipe that will sanitize all data on the hard
disk, including fonts, forms and embedded solution
data.
Provides greater customer confidence that data

Feature
Function
Benefit
FAX/Network
Separation
Lexmark offers a variety of MFP devices that

provide both network capability and fax modem
capability. In environments where network security
is critical, the combination of these two features on
a single device may be a concern. Lexmark
designs its MFPs to operate in such a way that the
device hardware and firmware keep these
mechanisms separate, which prevents any direct
interaction between the modem and network
adapter.
Reduces the need to have separate fax and

network devices without compromising security.

Feature
Function
Benefit
Backup Password
Backup Password provides access to the Security

Menu of the device regardless of the assigned
protection method or the availability of that
method.
If an LDAP server or network is unavailable, an

administrator would still have access to the
Security Menu of the device to make the
necessary adjustments for accessing the device.
802.1x
802.1x port authentication allows printers and

MFPs to join wired and wireless networks by
requiring the devices to authenticate prior to
accessing the network.
This stops rogue devices from infiltrating the

network
IPSEC
IPSec secures all network traffic to and from

Lexmark devices with encryption and
authentication, allowing data to be sent to printers
and MFPs securely. IPSec allows scanned data to
be transmitted over the network in an encrypted
format
This can protect the contents of jobs that are

scanned to any destination, including servers
running Lexmark Document Distributor, e-mail,
and network storage.
Secure NTP
Lexmark devices support the use of Secure

Network Time Protocol (SNTP), which is used for
clock synchronization of various devices on the
network.
This prevents the need from manually changing

clock settings or updating the current date and
times on a device.
Protected USB
Ports
Designed with security in mind, USB host ports

have various mechanisms in place to keep them
from being used in a malicious manner.
While locked, incoming print jobs and faxes are

not printed but stored on the device which
provides greater customer confidence that data
Auto-Insertion of
Senders E-Mail
Address
When a user authenticates in order to scan a

document to e-mail, the e-mail address of the
sender is automatically looked up and inserted into
the From field
This lets the recipient clearly see that the e-mail

was generated by that individual, not anonymously
or from the MFP.
Login Restrictions
Prevent unauthorized use of a device by restricting

the number of consecutive failed logins.
When this limit is exceeded, the device is locked

for a predetermined amount of time specified by
the administrator.
Microsoft Active
Directory Domain
Enrollment
This function allows devices to join a Microsoft

Active Directory which will allow the device to
automatically find and configure settings related to
authentication and authorization, certificate
management and Address Book Settings.
Provides seamless integration of non-Windows

as a method for transmitting bi-level
image data across a communications
channel. JBIG's progressive encoding
scheme allows lower resolution version
of the image to be sent first, followed by
higher resolution images which build on
the previously transmitted data (e.g. 75,
150, 300, 450, and 600 DPI).

on the control panel for confirmation and
review by a user Also allows for
modifying print settings and for printing
