MF654Cdw Remote Printing

[fortwendelconst]

I've looked all over and I'm hoping someone can help me clarify once and for all, can I print remotely to the MF654Cdw? For instance, is there a way I can be away from the office and easily print to the MF654Cdw in the office either from my phone or laptop? And would this work even if a computer is not connected to the printer at the time?

If the answer(s) are yes, please provide details on how to do this because it doesn't seem to be an easy setup. Thanks!

Greetings,

The setup for this configuration is called iFax. It's documented in the printer's user guide.  It is similar to scan to email which is outbound.  iFax works as an inbound connector and allows the printer to print inbound emails from remote sources.   Setup is not difficult but it depends on your understanding and skill level.

Thank you. I have tried this a couple of times and everytime I check connections, the SMTP connection works fine, but the POP connection throws an error:  

Server authentication error.

Check User Name and Password for the POP Server. 

sometimes I get an "Unable to connect to server."

I have created an email on gmail and enabled the POP3

I have double-checked, triple-checked the pasword I'm using. 

I changed the POP3 Port number to 587

Any advice on what I could be doing wrong?

The printer doesn't use modern auth, so create an app password in your Gmail account.

Thanks. I figured that one out and used the app password but still got an error. I've looked around I'm not seeing where I've gone wrong. Error:

Could not find the server.
Check the settings for [POP Server], and [DNS Settings] from the [IPv4 Settings] screen or the [IPv6 Settings] screen.

What address are you using for the mail server?

I think you want to use port 995 for inbound POP and SSL.
