Product: HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw
Operating System: macOS 12.0 Monterey

As of May 30, Google will not allow me to use this printer to scan to email  because they will not allow 3rd party sign in, right now I can turn on "allow less secure 

apps" and I can do it. How do I fix this without buying a new printer?

Hi,

Please open the following link and login to the same account as you set for the printer.

https://myaccount.google.com/security

Within the Signing in to Google section, be sure to turn on "2-Step Verification":

https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185839?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid

 

Next, create and use an App-Specific Password with the printer:
https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en

 

Once completing the changes update the outgoing email profile password to use the App Specific Password and then click Save and Test to ensure the problem has been resolved.

Regards,
Shlomi
