Editing scanned text (Optical Character Recognition)

You can use the Edit feature to edit faxes, letters, newspaper clippings, and many other documents. When you edit scanned text, an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) application reads the text, and you can import the text into a word processing program for editing. To change the link for your word processing program, use HP LaserJet Director.

Note The e-mail feature is not available in Windows 95.
