Hello!
My old HP printer had the ability for me to email the printer's email address and the printer would print the document. I cannot find this Canon printer's email address anywhere. Does anyone know if Canon printers have their own email address and where to find it? Model MF465dw
Thanks!

Greetings,
The service you are referring to is called HP ePrint. This was a cloud based service that was offered on printers sold prior to Fall of 2020. Its no longer available. I had an HP for a while myself. They now use the HP Smart print app for remote printing.
Canon doesn't have a cloud based service like this. Instead your printer has a feature called iFAX which uses email in a similar fashion 😃. This feature allows you to send an email with an attachment to the printer and when its received, it prints for you. You don't have to be present.
iFAX info:

Receiving iFAX
Using Internet Fax (I-Fax) - Canon - imageCLASS MF465dw / MF462dw - User's Guide (Product Manual)
Configure iFAX:
Like an email client on your PC, or configuring mail on your mobile device, you have to set up a mail account on your printer in order to send or receive mail. This can be documents that you Scan and send to an email destination, or Internet Fax (iFAX) messages received by the printer. This requires that the printer have connection to the internet. This can be wired ethernet or wireless.
What you will need: (I'm providing examples for Gmail)
sending / receiving mail server: smtp.gmail.com, or imap.gmail.com
Username, typically an email address
password: password for mailbox (an app password might be required, gmail, M365, etc)
port, 25, 110, 465 or 587
encryption type, SS or TLS
The settings vary depending on the mail provider. I use Gmail, but the printer supports most mail providers. M365, Gmail, Comcast, Yahoo, Spectrum and others. You'll set this up in the printer's remote UI. Hope this helps.
