Paperless is a simple Django application running in two parts:
a :ref:`consumer <utilities-consumer>` (the thing that does the indexing) and
the :ref:`webserver <utilities-webserver>` (the part that lets you search & download
already-indexed documents). If you want to learn more about its functions keep on
already-indexed documents). If you want to learn more about its functions keep on

Scanner Recommendations
=======================
As Paperless operates by watching a folder for new files, doesn't care what
scanner you use, but sometimes finding a scanner that will write to an FTP,
NFS, or SMB server can be difficult. This page is here to help you find one
that works right for you based on recommentations from other Paperless users.
