If you press the Scanner button when that red light appears, it should show you an error message that will help troubleshoot the problem. Without knowing more specific information, here are some problems that could cause your scans to fail when scanning to email:

- The network cable may be unplugged or faulty.
- The SMTP server is down, or the server name/IP address was entered incorrectly.
- The DNS server is down, or the server IP address is wrong.
- The SMTP server may be blocking the copier from sending emails, either because the copier is not on its "trusted" list or because it doesn't recognize the copier's IP address or MAC address.
- SMTP authentication may need to be enabled.
- The SMTP username and password entered into the copier may be incorrect or entered incorrectly.
- The wrong port was chosen for the SMTP server.
- There could be a network firewall blocking the communication.
- The network interface port on the copier could be bad.
- The Ethernet communication speed may need to be changed, either for the copier or a switch or hub it is connected to.
- The email address(es) saved on the copier may be incorrect.
- The SMTP server requires a valid "from" email address, and the administrator's email address on the copier is not valid.
- A sender is required but was not specified

And here are some problems that could prevent you from scanning to a folder:

- The folder isn't shared
- The user account you are using to authenticate does not have rights to access that folder (or a parent folder)
- There is a network connection problem somewhere between the copier and the computer
- There is a hardware or software preventing the copier from reaching that folder (ie. a firewall, anti-virus program, security suite, router, etc.)
- The copier and the computer are not in the same workgroup/domain
