Setting up scan to email (gmail) for Canon MF644CdW

[enobriga]

I have not been able to set up my scan to email (gmail)---smtp. I tried to follow solutions posted on this board however still unsuccessful. Any recommendations?

Greetings,

Not sure what instructions your followed since you didn't provide a reference.

I believe Gmail is no longer supporting connection from :"Less Secure Apps"...

Outgoing server is smtp.gmail.com

User is full gmail address

Ports: 587 or 465

For the password, I would enable 2 factor for the account.  You should be using this for enhanced security anyway.  Create an app password and use it in the password field.

I'm using an Imagerunner Advance C5535i (if it matters) and I'm having the same issue since the change. I generated and input an app password. When I test the SMTP connection, it says Connection to the Server successful. However, when I try to send an email, I get error code #839/ SMTP Authentication Error.  Any ideas on why it isn't sending the scans when the test is working?
