I want to be able to send and receive faxes without a phone line.  I have tried the digital fax setup on my mac without success.  I have a shared folder with a user and password assigned but it fails on setup every time I test it.  It says username/password failed.  I have to setup the folder as \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\foldername to get it past that point and then the error for username/password.  Why is this so hard?

Hi,

Please follow below support document, this is for scanning but the same steps applies:

https://support.hp.com/hr-en/document/c06696672

 

Carefully follow the steps to ensure the sharing settings are set property on the mac, ensure that SMB is enabled and the user is checked in this screen for the user, also review the printer date and time preferences which might be the cause for the failure in here.

I keep getting the error that my username/password is wrong.  It isn't.
