Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Can someone provide an accurate answer as to which HP AIO printers will have all functions work with SMB v1 disabled? All of our printers have various features that will not work without SMB v1 enabled, like DIgital Fax. Enabling SMB v1 on our network is NOT an option as it is a huge security risk, and it seems printer manufacturers are behind the security curve.

An HP Officejet Pro 8740 printer supports SMBv2 with its latest firmware installed, as clearly listed on page 5 below:

Make sure the printer firmware is fully up to date and check, you may download the latest firmware below:
