Scan to Network folder

[WaltW1]

I've tried for an hour now to set up Scan To Network Folder, and no matter what I try, I get "Incorrect Credentials - Check Your username/password and try again when I test the path".

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

If you have not yet done so,

If your printer supports EWS > Scan > Scan to Network Folder 

Add the following to your checkpoints:

EWS

Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar

Tab Scan > Scan to Network Folder > Network Folder Setup

• Mapped entries that cannot read the host (computer / remote system) name can be accessed using the device IP address

and...

• Folders on the local Windows computer must be Shared and the read access open - Open the Advanced Sharing section, click the user / owner to highlight, check the access (should be "full control")
• If it's not working and you have not done so, switch on Network Discovery and File / Printer sharing (in Windows Features)
• Check the SMB settings (not likely an issue - worth a quick look)
• When you Edit / Test your Profile, swipe to remove the PIN dots (do this even if you were not using a Pin)
• If you are mapping to a remote system, for example a NAS, make sure the shared directory (folder) is in Group Everyone

Example - EWS - Scan-to-Network-Folder

EWS_9025_Scan-to-Network-Folder_13
