I cannot scan to Mail now from HP 5746

For years I have been able to scan documents to" mail" so I could email them. Now I get the error message

"The Selected Folder is not Writable". I can scan to a folder, print wirelessly etc. but I cannot get a document to scan and go to email? I have rebooted the printer, the router, the Mac etc.??


Any ideas?

Mac Pro

Hi painlessone,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!


We understand that you're seeing an alert the selected folder isn't writable when you attempt to scan to Mail on your Mac. You may consider checking your scanners documentation to determine if there is a feature within the scanner software which would allow you to scan directly to Mail. You can learn more about scanning on your Mac here: Scan images or documents using your Mac


We hope this helps.


Cheers!
