    SMTP Gmail - less secure apps

    hello, I wanted to ask you if you ever managed to set up a gmail account (scan to email) without enabling in Google security settings: "allow less secure app access".


    Is there a way to avoid disabling this option? For example, enabled SSL certificates or something similar.

    thank you

        I have tried both above methods on a Sharp mx 3060 and none worked for me, I always allow less secure apps and that works every time.
        Networking skills are advantageous but use of a 3m vacuum cleaner is essential

          With double verification it cannot work. The printer logs in to Gmail and cannot receive text messages for verification.
