It sounds like a good idea if only I knew what a scanner was and how to use one.
A scanner functions similar to a copier with the difference being that instead of printing the copy on paper, it saves it as a computer image. These days it is possible to find devices that combine three features - print, scan, and copy into a single multifunction machine. Obviously you need a computer to be able to hook up the scanner. For example

Cheaper machines that do this are available as well. Look at your local Walmart.
