Hello, I have been trying to configure the scan to email function for my HP OfficeJet 8702. The SMTP settings I am using are as follows, the bleeped info is g m a i l:
SMTP Server: smtp.**bleep**.com
SMTP Port: 587
Always use secure connection: Yes
Validate server certificate: No
Server requires authentication: Yes
Username: myemail@**bleep**.com
Password: The app password I generated for this email
I have used a combination of different configurations, including trying port 465, using my account password instead of an app password, switching my printer's wired connection to a wireless connection, etc. All of these have given me the same error message: "SMTP email authentication required. Check your username/password and try again." I have confirmed that these exact credentials work through another server on my network utilizing SMTP, so I do not think it is my home router's configuration either. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
