Do they make a scanner that can hold about 100 sheets of paper, scan them, and then email the document to an email address with the scanner connected to a wifi network?
Scanner question

Most printers these days have the ability to scan many pages into one PDF and then be able to send. However the best set-up for something like that would be connected to a computer in case pages need to be added to the document. You also run the risk of having the scanner grab multiple pages at once, causing missed pages in your PDF. Our simple set-up at work is cumbersome but if we have many pages we use the option to add an additional page and scan each page one at a time. Takes a long time but it insures we do not miss a page.
At work I scan to a secured folder only accessible to me. From this folder I can compress in a zip file and send. As Chuck mentioned, being hard wired would be more efficient.

As stated I would worry about missing pages. You have to sit there and baby sit it. I only feed 5-10 pages at a time. Just gently put them on before it runs out. Then double check the page count. I got a new printer/scanner recently and it goes straight to my phone. There is software built in that makes it very easy to hook up to wifi. It was the cheapest one Costco had so I imagine a lot of them would be able to do it these days. This is an HP ENVY 6458e. There is no plug hole on this, so hard wiring isnt even an option.
The only downside is I have to unplug it when not using it. The emf that thing puts out will keep your coffee warm!!

Missing pages isn't an issue. I send the hard copy once a week. This just gets the process started.
