HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

MFP M281fdw printer w/ newest firmware

Synology NAS with all software/firmware updated

 

I have created the shared folder in DiskStation called "scans" and given the user account "HPprinter" read write access to it. 

I have set the SMB file services on the NAS to Min:SMB2 Max: SMB3

Everything looks peachy except that the printer will not connect.

The ever useful HP software just says "The test was unsuccessful.  Try again."
