Can someone help me with getting the OCR software to work on my HP Photosmart C4280 printer/scanner?

This is what I could find from HP...I'm not sure what OS you have so I'll give you a few links...

Scan document settings

Use the scan document settings to control how the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software recognizes the scanned text. These settings are applied each time that you scan a document from HP Solution Center.

If you have not already done so, open HP Solution Center and click Settings , Scan Settings & Preferences , and then click Scan Document Settings .

The Scan Document Settings dialog box displays.

Select the Resolution setting (see Table 1 ).

Select any other options in the Scan Document Settings dialog box that apply to the document you are scanning. The following options are available:

Retain Page Formatting retains the layout and formatting of the original document as much as possible. Minor changes to the text are easy, but major editing or reformatting can be difficult because the blocks of text are in separate frames. Some simple word processing programs (such as Notepad) do not accept the Framed Text formatting.

Flowed Text arranges all of the text components in a single-column flow. You lose the page layout information.

Choose the appropriate language in the OCR Language list.

Click OK to save the new settings and close the dialog box.

Click Scan Document in HP Solution Center to scan using your new settings, or click a Scan button on the HP All-in-One front panel.

I have a HP All-in-one and I'm running Vista....no updates as of yet for OCR...I got a rebate though LOL...makes me wonder if it was worth while.
