Category: New OutlookOof this was a fun job to figure out! Client called and said her new HP printer would only scan to New Outlook. I figured something was up so I did all my troubleshooting, and after not finding any options to change to old or classic Outlook, we called HP. I got two different people who frankly didn’t know what was going on. I decided to train my client on how to use the Windows Fax and Scan in her computer and it scanned perfect and used the “forward to email” option that opened her classic Outlook.
This is all I have for you, if you know of a workaround, please let me know, otherwise below are the notes to get around it. If this is a dealbreaker for you, you can use New Outlook, call HP and complain to see if they found a patch for this (the patch they offered us, did NOT work btw), or return it and get another printer that does print to old or classic Outlook.
How to find and use the Windows Fax and Scan app:

There are two ways to add Gmail accounts in New Outlook. New Outlook is a more like a “skin” of the cloud working off your desktop, it will connect through the cloud. You cannot add accounts through control panel anymore. If you are Googling for an answer and want to know why it’s not working for you, I have some tips at the bottom of this message on most likely reasons.

Take note: New Outlook will sync all contacts and calendars from any Gmail or Google Workspace account. This is by far my favorite feature of New Outlook (vs Classic Outlook, which cannot sync any Google natively)

Right now folks, it’s not something you can do. Microsoft does have it on their list for 1st quarter to allow you to move emails from one email account to another. In addition to adding PST files that are actually functional. Give it time, we’ll get things how we want them eventually.

Take note: You will need to have a Business 365 Exchange account to add this app.
To add this app, open New Outlook and find “apps” on the left side of the window
“Add Apps”
Search “Zoom” and you should “Zoom for Outlook Extensions”
Click on it and hit “Open”
If successful, it will say “Start using Zoom for Outlook Extension”
Hit “Got it” and close that window
Create a new event in New Outlook and you should see the Zoom app

New Outlook does not have the feature in the standard view, so you will need to change the view. Good news for Microsoft Exchange and Outlook.com users, it should have migrated over nicely for you. POP/PST and IMAP users might have to make a new quick step.
In New Outlook, you need to change your view to “classic view”
Click on “View’ in the top navigation bar
Click on “Layout”
Click on “Ribbon”
Change to “Classic View”
Click on the “Home” tab and you will see the quick steps again and can use it for your emails to go to folders.
