I apologize in advance for the result of my copying and pasting from a word document. I’m not able to fully revise to match my original information.
ISSUE IN NEED OF RESOLUTION 08/12/19 = I am unable to scan to email.
Preview: I received an email security alert from Google stating that “Someone just used your password to try to sign in to your account from a non-Google app. Google blocked them, but you should check what happened”.
STEPS TAKEN PRIOR TO SUBMITTING A POST WITHIN THE FORUM: SOLICITING HELP WITHIN FORUM:
Action Taken: I changed my email password. RESULT: DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE.
Note: In the past, my email password was changed whilst on vacation. Upon return; I noticed that I was unable to scan->email on the Xerox. Troubleshooting led me to realize that my email is also the same for the Xerox. Logged into URL and updated my changed password thus solving the problem of not being able to scan->email.
PROBLEM TODAY: I followed the exact steps as before to update/change my password, PROPERTIES->PROTOCOLS->SMTP (E-MAIL) ->SMTP AUTHENTICATION, which was effective for many months until today. I’ve listed a few things I’ve checked/updated to solve the above stated problem.
ADDITIONAL ACTION TAKEN: Registered with ‘Xerox Account Management.” LOGIN->MYSUPPORT->FIND YOUR EQUIPMENT, ‘Serial Number,’ Customer Number,’ ‘Recent Invoice Number,’ ‘Order Number.’->MANAGE MY DEVICES->OPEN-> RESULT: NA TO ISSUE.
ADDITIONAL ACTION TAKEN: Called 888.339.7887. RESULT: Xerox Customer Service would not assist due to our company recently purchased out of lease Xerox.

Note: I printed the current Configuration Page and compared it to the last/correct/working Configuration Page within my files. I did not find anything different between the two.
PROPERTIES->CONFIGURATION OVERVIEW-> 1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN-> A. Printed and reviewed the configuration checklist to help identify what information is needed to configure the device.

My only option was to select, “Default All.” I selected ‘Default.’ I received the following message, “10.1.1.50 SAYS ALL VALUES FOR THIS PROTOCOL WILL BE RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULT VALUES. NOTHING CHANGED EXCEPT THE ABILITY TO SELECT BETWEEN THE THREE IS AVAILABLE NOW.”
