It will not pass the smog test because the ecu saves so called freeze frame, the dealer who is going to pass it will ask you to drive longer until the freeze frame disappears. These codes usually show up when your car has problems with EGR system. Check vacuum hoses for cracks around EGR valve and VSV. If it did not help try to run tests for EGR valve and vacuum switching valve.

How do fix code P0401 on 2001 Toyota Camry?

P0401 indicates problems with EGR system... It might a simple one, for instance, you just need to clean EGR pipe and valve. Or it can be more expansive one like faulty EGR valve or EGR sensor. Which one you have impossible to answer without testing the car. And you can use the professional Toyota tool to repair it, I think the Toyota it2 is a good tool for it.
