Installing Grooper Desktop

Grooper Desktop is a lightweight application required to scan paper documents into Grooper. Furthermore:

• Grooper Desktop runs in the background and must be on in order to scan.
• Grooper Desktop must be installed on any desktop computer connected to a document scanner used for scanning.
• Once installed, users will use the Review activity's "Scan Viewer" to scan documents into Grooper.
• Grooper Desktop "listens" for users operating the Scan Viewer, drives the scanner, and sends all images coming from the scanner to the Grooper Repository via web calls.
