its normal comes with the scanner on a free disk
you cant print to ocr - ocr is optical caricature recognition and is the process the pc uses to convert the scanned documents to word etc

Adobe Acrobat will do it if you didn't get anything with the scanner. If it's a one off you can get a free months trial from the Adobe website. Used it at work a few times and it does a fairly good job.  _________________
