remove pin number from scan to email

[jo5030]

I have an OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus, and have set up my 'scan to email'.  In the process I have set up a PIN number to gain entry.  This is overkill, so want to remove it, but can see no way of removing this PIN protection.

Any ideas?

Hi jo5030. The easiest way is to create a new Scan To Email profile, and don't add a PIN when it asks for it. You can also change the profile in the Embedded Web Server (EWS) of the printer, which you can access from your computer (this will work from any computer or device that has a web browser that is on the same network as your printer)

Follow this path in the document I have provided to enter the Embedded Web Server.
-"How to scan directly to email (N911g and N911n models that use network connections only)"
-"Step two: Set up the Scan to Email profile"
-"Windows"
-"Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS)"

How to Scan: From the Control Panel:

Once you are in, you should be able to edit your existing profile and modify your PIN (erase it)
