Here are the requirements I have for any paper-free system:

* The scanned files need to be OCR’ed so I can search them easily. I’m too lazy to categorize and tag files manually.
* I need to be able to scan files anywhere. If I’m out at dinner I want to be able to snap a picture of my receipt and tear it up right there.
* No “cloud” services allowed for unencrypted important documents. I simply don’t trust Google/Dropbox/etc enough to put my bank statements and such there.
* Files need to be backed up securely in case my apartment burns down.
* The entire process needs to be automated as much as possible, otherwise I’ll get lazy and not scan things.
