I am scanning from my Brother multi-function device to an SMB share, which paperless monitors for changes. Works like a charm. You can even bulk move files there using your local file manager.

Which type of brother printer do you use? And do you use it under Linux?

There is a long list of supported scanners directly from Paperless: https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/wiki/Scanner-...

Personally I go with Brother ADS-1700W. I don't use it under any operating system since it is Scanner > SMB share.

I'm using a Brother MFC-L3770CDW (Colour laser, with a duplexing scanner). Very reasonable price and super capable device, works fine with linux.

I wish I could selectively subscribe to comments on HN, but I have to comment to do that. So this is my subscription comment. #metoo

Brother DCP-L2550DW here. One of the cheapest b/w multifunction devices with automatic document feeder and reasonable print and scan performance. Works like a charm on Linux, Windows, Android, and IOS.

I am using it with [NAPS2](https://www.naps2.com/), which is brilliantly simple, multi-platform, free, and open-source.

Just one of their Color-Laser scanner/printer combos. Works like a charm for iOS, Linux, MacOS, Windows.

I am using a paperless@<domain> address for this as well. Handy to archive stuff coming in via email.
