I've read other entries about configuring from a Gmail to get your all-in-one Canon MF743Cdw to send an email with a scanned attachment, following the instructions to the letter. I just purchased this item and could not get it to work. We created a separate gmail account without two-factor authentication, created an app password, changed the ports, etc. None of it worked. Totally at a loss on how to use this critical business function. Any advice would be appreciated. Here are my settings under the E-mail/I-Fax settings:
SMTP Server: smtp.gmail.com
Email address: xxxx@ gmail.com
Pop Rx: Off
Pop Authentication Before Sending: Off
SMTP Authentication: On
User name: xxxx@ gmail.com
Password: set using the App password function on Gmail
Use TLS for SMTP: On
Verify Certificate: On
Add CN to Verification items: On
Use TLS for POP: Off
I've tried this configuration using SMTP ports 465 and 587

I had to go into the Google account settings and turn "less secure access" on. See attached.
Good guide here too:
