The paperport won’t make it connect the printer. the advantage of Devonthink is it can OCR the scanned image and it can organize your scans. As for something to connect to the Dell 3115cn from Mac the only way I’d know to do it would be using VMware or the such with unity. But that isn’t really what you are wanting either.

Just for the records … I’ve a Dell 3115CN. It’s already installed according to your description food printer and scanner (thank you for that!).

I have used Paperport (for windows based systems). What I’ve read on the internet is that PageManager is a look-a-like for the Mac. But does the printer driver connects with the program like PageManager or DevonThink …..

Thanks Chris of your prompt reply!
As I understood it correctly … I have to scan it manually and import it also manually to Devonthink Pro? In that case, what is the advantage of a program like this?

Devonthink Pro Office is really good but you’ll have to set it to work with the scanned image after the fact as there is no build in software for the 3115CN to scan direct to the system. It has to scan via FTP.

Hi Chris,

Do you have any experience (or advices) which scan software program works with this driver? I have used Paperport (for my Windows computer). There is a program like Pagemaker (for OSX) which almost does the same. Does this driver also activate the scanner in the Dell 3115 CN printer? What program can you advise me?

Thanks in advance!

I tried your workaround for the Dell 1500 printer, but it didn’t work. I think it might be because I didn’t run the Dell Printer Driver installer, so some of the infrastructure/file structure needed to make this work is missing. Any help/suggestions?

This is a Wonderful Thing if I can get it to work!!

Hi Chris,

After making several more attempts, we finally got your current solution to work on Lion 10.7.2. I did, however, adjust some of the steps as I was going through because a few of them did not come up as were shown in the YouTube clip. I am sure I did a muddle through rather than a work through but for now it seems to be working. Once again, your work is much appreciated.
