    From Errol Casey@VERT/TL-QWK to All on Sun Mar 1 11:07:57 2026
    Curious who is using paperless-ngx and what scanners or scanning software works best with it.

    Would like and easy workflow to scan bills and receipts.

    I haven't used it, but checked it and it does look interesting.

    On their Wiki there is this:

    I looked a a list of scanners not sure if it is the same url; will check and make sure.

    Someone shared that you can setup a share, and have an andriod app scan and write to the share . So that maybe the way I try it until, I can find a scanner that works under linux and docker...

    Would like and easy workflow to scan
    bills and receipts.

    On their github wiki, under Related
    Projects, they have a list of mobile
    apps. I would just try them all and see
    which one feels best to use.
