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.
