So, this is not in an office environment where you have a corporate email system?

In any case, you do NOT create an SMTP server to enable this functionality of the printer/scanner. Instead, you enter your existing email server settings into the printer/scanner.

You need to contact whomever currently provides your email. If this is a home setting, then this organization is probably your Internet Service Provider (the people you send a bill to every month for Internet service). Go to their web site and poke around
