Chris,
Can you give some insight into the mechanics of such a setup? Would
this be for single-sheet or a few sheets, or for mass volume scanning?
In any event, wouldn't the end use need to physically visit the device each
time he or she uses it?
Network-attached printers evolved a long time ago because it's easy to
generate a print job, and pick it up asynchronously, perhaps hours
later. I'm guessing that network-attached scanners aren't as
obvious a setup because you inherently need to visit the device to start
the job. You also need to save the output somewhere, so wouldn't a
network-attached PC with a shared drive fill the bill?

I'm looking into scanners that have an

what you're using, how well it works, etc. Thanks.
