• Make sure that Enable USB Storage option is selected in the Configure > Job Submission.
• Obtain two USB flash drives:
• The first (bootable) USB flash drive must have minimum 2GB and a maximum of 32GB available space respectively.
NOTE:
Due to a Windows file system restriction, the maximum size of the bootable USB flash drive you can use is 32GB.
• The second USB drive can have more than 32GB of available space. The minimum size required for the second USB
drive depends on the actual size of the backup file. Use a USB HDD formatted with NTFS file system.
