For the hardware side, I use a Fujitsu ScanSnap - I believe my model is an S1300i - to scan paper documents. I use the bundled OCR software (ABBYY FineReader) which seems to work fairly well, though it's highly dependent on the resolution you scan at. As for software, I haven't found anything I'm truly happy with. I've put some effort into using Mayan EDMS[0] to store the documents. It works well, but isn't perfect. Version 3.0 added a bunch of UI changes that should significantly improve matters, but I haven't gotten around to upgrading it yet. I've also tried Alfresco Community Edition[1], but I think this tool is overkill for the job.
