You can also buy it from the Doxie store. At the time of this writing, on Amazon there is a code for a free Eye-Fi card. There may be a way to do something similar on Windows, but I haven’t tried. I am doing this because I am lazy and a geek (a dangerous combination). The scanner’s instructions say that you should use their included software, and you probably should. First, A Noteīefore you read the rest of this post, I want to assure you that you do not need to do all this to use the Doxie Go effectively. I want to be able to grab the Doxie Go on my kitchen counter, pop in a piece of paper, hit scan, and have the image converted to PDF, made searchable, and available from any device with no interaction from me and without me having to plug it into anything. My goal for this workflow is to have things completed in as few steps as possible. I keep the Doxie tucked away in a cabinet near our kitchen, and when I want to capture something and don’t want the paper to hang around, I grab it, pop in the wi-fi card, and hit scan.
Primarily, this is stuff that comes in via my kids’ backpacks and other miscellany. Since my “normal” scanner is downstairs in my office, I use the Doxie Go for one-off and quick scans that come in the front door. For that I need a document feeder and duplex scanning.
I don’t use it for the majority of my scanning. I call the Doxie Go my “kitchen scanner”.
The scanner, paired with the included Wi-Fi card, does what I want it to do, but I wanted to streamline process a little bit due to my aforementioned indolence. Whenever you see a workflow post from me, you can translate that to “Brooks is lazy and wants to automate things as much as possible”.
