Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
A while back Google dropped support for "Less Secure Apps".
It is possible that other email providers have followed suit (done the same).
If your Scan-to-Email SMTP setup is failing due to the way the email provider is controlling access,
Create and use an App Password.
Use the App Password in your Profile in place of the "regular" password you normally use to access your email.

Steps
Log into your Google Account
Open your Google Security Webpage
Next, if not done, Switch ON 2-step verification
Next, Complete the steps to open your mail security settings
and
Create / Select app and (then) create your app password
- At the bottom, choose Select app and choose the app you using > Select device and choose the device you’re using > Generate.
- Follow the instructions to enter the App Password. The App Password is the 16-character code in the yellow bar on your device.
- Tap Done.
Tip: Most of the time, you’ll only have to enter an App Password once per app or device, so don’t worry about memorizing it.
Assign / set that new App Password in your Scan to Email profile as the password.
Save and Test
