MFP M277-DW Scan to Network Folder

[Hopflys]

In the printer settings - Scan Tab - Option scan to network folder. I have tried entering the shared folder info in both smb and afp format. Neither is accepted by the printer. Can anyone help? Note that this is to connect the printer to a shared folder on a MAC

Thanks

Thank you for your help on this issue. I found that inputting the authentication fields was mandatory, and that care had to exercised to eliminate any spaces from the user name. i.e. a user name on a MAC when it is displayed for logon purposes may well have a space. However, internally that user name is truncated by removing any spaces.

I was able to get the solution working both on wifi and CAT6 cable

Thank you again
