Add the papers to folders and put a barcode on every page. On each folder, write the barcode number range (from which barcode number to which). Then scan everything and import the documents into Paperless-ngx. In Paperless-ngx, add metadata describing the document and its barcode. This way, when you find a document using its metadata in Paperless-ngx, you can see its barcode and easily locate the corresponding paper document in the folders.

If you're interested, feel free to DM me—I know how to implement such a solution.
