My printer suddenly stopped letting me scan to email, with this message: "Username or Password is incorrect. make sure both user account and password are valid."
How do I find how to check these?

If the password in Scan to Email needs to be updated / checked,
If the printer is on the network,
Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) to configure / update Scan to Email
Example - Officejet Pro 8740 - Scan to Email setup
Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar
Tab Scan > Topic Scan to Email > Scan to Email Setup
Enter / Verify data > Click Apply to save changes
EWS_8740_Scan-to-Email_Setup_2
