Xerox Workcentre 59xx scan to Office 365

 I went on to update the other office scanners, and these were easier.
They were able to authenticate with a mail enabled office 365 account to send.

(These directions assume your scanner is already setup on the network and can scan to your local email server)

Log into your Xerox
decent site https://default-password.info/xerox/
default for the 59xx:
admin
1111

Once you're in go to Properties
Email
SMTP

Under Server, you can select Use DNS to select SMTP server, and it will give you the option to update the DNS servers. I added google (8.8.8.8) as the third DNS, the other two being internal servers. I read that the scanner might not find smtp.office365.com without an external DNS, (I didn't test without the external, if it works with just internal DNS let me know.)

Ok, so back to email (link at the top of the DNS page.)
I selected Hostname and entered smtp.office365.com
Device Email address I used the mail enabled account at my domain.

Save

SMTP auth, I used system and put in the mail enabled account. (User@emaildomain.com)


Go to the Connection Encryption tab and select STARTTLS
I tried SSL/TLS and it never connected, STARTTLS and the test went right away.

Test your configuration.
