• Scanner Sharing
  • Share scanners with other computers on the local network, for example:

    • Allow Windows-only scanners to be used from Mac/Linux using a virtual machine
    • Set up a Raspberry Pi to turn a USB scanner into a wireless scanner

  • NAPS2 currently must be kept open on the host for sharing to work
