A customer called in because the hard drive in their copier died and was replaced. Since it was replaced the settings were never the same and their “Scan-to-folder” and “scan-to-email” was no longer working.

Go to the “Properties” tab and in the Menu on the left under “Services” go to “Email” and then “Setup”. Go to the “Required Information” tab. This group is using Office 365 to handle their email, so I needed the following settings:
- SMTP Server: smtp.office365.com
- Port: 587
- Host Name: check this box.
- Device Email Address: I had to add a valid email address and password.
While still in the “SMTP (Email)” section go to the “SMTP Authentication” tab. Here is what we needed fixed. It should look like the following:
You can use the “test configuration” button to make sure it is working properly.
This YouTube video did help me get the connection to Active Directory working correctly.
