• Email sender (coming functionality)
  Leave this blank and when using a printer’s Email function the From field will be prefilled with the email address of the signed in user. However, this can cause some SMTP servers to reject the sending of the scanned documents. In this case you can type a default sender email address in the Email sender field and this will be used as the sender rather than the email address of the signed in user.
