Operating systems / Approved under : Windows® 10 x64 (64bit), Microsoft® Office® 2016-2019, Microsoft® Office® 365. Recommended: Windows® 10 x64 (64bit). The use of different components is possible, but can lead to technical restrictions. PaperOffice requires local administrator rights for proper operation. Check independently of the operating system by means of a test installation whether all functions meet your requirements, as no official release can take place due to a lack of update / system support.

Display : Required: 1280 x 768, Recommended: 1920 x 1080 or more. Mobile devices - Required: 960 x 640, Recommended: 1280 x 720 or more.

Hardware : Required: 4GB RAM, processor performance Intel i5 of the newer generation (or comparable), Internet connection (downstream at least 10Mbit, upstream at least 1Mbit). Recommended: as before, but 8GB RAM, Intel i7 (or comparable), installation and database on SSD, internet connection (downstream min. 16 Mbit, upstream synchronous or min. 5 Mbit)

Network (optional) : Required: Standard TCP / IP network 100Mbit. Recommended: Standard TCP / IP network 1Gbit. For RSPS (Secure Personal Server) or remote server networking, server connection with at least 50Mbit synchronous, client connection with at least 20Mbit downstream, 1Mbit upstream.

Database : Required - at least 1GB free space for local database storage. Recommended: Data storage on a NAS device (such as QNAP or Synology) with at least 10GB MB free space.

Printer / scanner (optional) : For purposes with little paper volume: standard flatbed or sheet-fed scanner with WIA or TWAIN interface, inkjet or laser printer. For purposes with medium volume of paper: powerful feeder scanner with ADF (automatic document feeder) with WIA or TWAIN interface, laser printer. For purposes with high paper volumes: large combination devices such as Konica Minolta BizHub series with WIA or TWAIN interface or Scan2file function.

Licensing : PaperOffice program licenses of version One are valid for one user account, one database and installation on just one PC. Use with a database on a NAS is permitted.
To use PaperOffice in a network, NAS or your own server, you need the PaperOffice Team version.
The database server itself does not need a license of its own.
PaperOffice can be reinstalled as often as required on the licensed PC. If you want to work with several databases, you need a separate PaperOffice user account for each database. Otherwise, you can change the database every 96 hours. A PaperOffice Team license allows installation on up to 3 PCs, but only 1 user account. For the installation on more than 3 PCs or for the simultaneous work of several users in the network, you need a PaperOffice Team license per user account.
Examples :
PaperOffice as a single user version, local database storage or database on a NAS = 1 piece of PaperOffice One
PaperOffice with installation on up to 3 PCs and 1 user account as well as database storage on NAS (such as QNAP) = 1 piece of PaperOffice Team
PaperOffice in the network and database storage on NAS (such as QNAP) with 5 user accounts = 5 PaperOffice Team
