A quick look at your printer's manual shows that it uses its own software to connect to your mail provider's SMTP server. Thunderbird or Outlook is not used.

From the HP manual LaserJet Pro MFP M225, M226

...To configure this feature, use the Scan to Email Setup Wizard (Windows), which is installed in the HP program group...

● Use the Scan to E-Mail Wizard (Windows)
● Set up the Scan to Email feature via the HP Embedded Web Server (Windows)
● Set up the Scan to Email feature via the HP Embedded Web Server (OS X)

The SMTP settings are the same as found in Thunderbird's Account settings The password required is the password needed to access your mail server.
