For example, see this closed thread on MS Answer forums: This is apparently a big problem with Win 10. I don’t want a logon password on my home PC, and I really have tried a lot of stuff to try to get around this. The printer setup for this target folder will not accept a no-logon-password Win 10 PC as the home of the target. ► However, the printer will not accept the designation of a network folder as a valid target unless I add a logon password to my Win 10 Pro PC and add that password to the setting on the printer.

Note that the printer is initiating and pushing the scanned pdf to my Win 10 Pro PC on the network – the PC is not ordering and pulling the scan.
The HP OJP 9015 has a “Scan to Network Folder” feature which sets a “button” on the printer’s tiny screen to scan what’s in the feeder or on the glass and send a pdf copy to a designated folder on my home network – specifically to a target folder on my home Win 10 Pro 64-bit PC (version 1909).
