Configure e-mail settings
Before you can send a document to e-mail, you must configure the device for e-mailing.
NOTE The instructions that follow are for configuring the device at the control panel. You
can also perform these procedures by using the embedded Web server. For more information,
see
Embedded Web server.
Supported protocols
The HP LaserJet M4345 MFP models support Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The HP
LaserJet M4345 MFP models support SMTP and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
SMTP
●
SMTP is a set of rules that define the interaction between programs that send and receive e-
mail. In order for the device to send documents to e-mail, it must be connected to a LAN that
has a valid SMTP IP address. The SMTP server must also have Internet access.
●
If you are using a LAN connection, contact your system administrator to obtain the IP address
for your SMTP server. If you are connecting through a DSL connection, contact the service
provider to obtain the SMTP server IP address.
LDAP
●
LDAP is used to gain access to a database of information. When the device uses LDAP, it
searches a global list of e-mail addresses. As you begin to type the e-mail address, LDAP uses
an auto-complete feature that supplies a list of e-mail addresses that match the characters you
type. As you type additional characters, the list of matching e-mail addresses becomes smaller.
● The device supports LDAP, but a connection to an LDAP server is not required in order for the
device to be able to send to e-mail.
NOTE If you need to change the LDAP settings, you must change them by using the
embedded Web server. For more information, see
Embedded Web server, or see the
Embedded Web Server User Guide on the device CD.
Configure e-mail server settings
Consult your system administrator to find the IP address for the SMTP server. Or, find the IP address
from the device control panel (see ). Then use the following procedures to manually configure and
test the IP address.
Configure the SMTP gateway address
1. From the Home screen, touch Administration.
2. Touch Initial Setup.
3. Touch E-mail Setup, and then touch SMTP Gateway.
4. Type the SMTP gateway address, either as an IP address or as a fully qualified domain name. If
you do not know the IP address or domain name, contact the network administrator.
5. Touch OK.
