My family's paperwork storage has really gotten out of hand over the last couple years. My wife and I keep all of our purchase / payment records for anything other than food, and after 15 years of accumulating paperwork, receipts, invoices, bills, taxes, and a myriad of other things, we got up to our third filing box. It was filling up *much* more quickly than prior, as we now have three children's worth of school/medical/(etc) being filed away in addition to our 'normal' inflow... So I decided it was time to digitize!I set up a self-hosted Paperless-NGX server/application, the different document types (receipts, medical, taxes, et al), configured automated tagging and filing based on keywords and whatnot, and was finally ready to start scanning. I had no idea what I was in for with trying to use an all-in-one for this - absolutely no idea.We have an HP OfficeJet that has a 35 page capacity document feeder for scanning, and I frankly thought this would be perfect. It's a bit older at this point, but we've kept it because we can use whatever ink we want, the prints look better than average, and it never seems to jam except due to human error... But I'd no idea how SLOW this would be. Sometimes 8-10 minutes for a stack of papers! So I'd walk away to do something else for a minute, come back, and find it had decided to double-feed several times, requiring me to re-scan the whole stack... Again. This was made many times worse by the fact that many of the docs we're needing to scan came in the mail folded at one point, and it seemed the creases in the paper would 'catch' for those far more than others.Finally opted for this scanner - I'm responsible for the network in our house, and I didn't want another wifi device that eventually would stop receiving updates and become vulnerable to security exploits over the air 5-7 years down the line, and this hard-wired option fit the bill perfectly. It also seems to fair FAR better at handling difficult-to-feed papers than anything I've worked with before. The scans are crisp enough that the OCR (optical character recognition, the part of the Paperless server that makes the generated PDF's searchable) has yet to have any issues misidentifying letters/words or numbers. Double-sided is possible in a single pass (no more flipping them over and running them back through for the other side).And this thing is WICKED FAST, especially compared to our old officejet. I know there are faster units out there, but given I've so many different types of documents to scan (and hence need to choose a different profile to use so they scan 1-sided vs 2, color vs B/W, etc), I can't say that I think it scanning any faster would actually be of much benefit to me.The UI (browser based) takes some getting used to, and is frankly a bit clunky... But once you get it set up, you pretty well never have to mess with it again, so that's became a non-issue to me.One of the easiest 5 star reviews I've ever written!
