OCR Software for Lexmark

Is there a way to get my Lexmark to recognize Abbyy FineReader 11 Pro, so that I don't have to install Abbyy FR 6.0 SPRINT (bundled with Lexmark X6650)and still scan from the AiO panel?

You should be able to assign Abby FineReader 11 Pro as the OCR software in the Lexmark software (Lexmark Productivity Studio for Windows or All-in-One Center for the Mac OS). You will need this software though and to have the monitor running to "listen" for the scan button to be pressed. You will also need to ensure your firewall doesn't block communication if you connect the X6650 through the network.

In the Productivity Studio (launch Lexmark Home), click on the Settings tab and then the Scan Destinations option. Add Abby FineReader 11 Pro to the list of destinations. Click on that option and click on the Modify button to make sure that the Application button is set and is pointing to the correct program and correct file type. Then you can go back to the all-in-one and press the Scan button. Select Scan to Computer and then choose Refresh to update the list of destination programs.

I hope this helps. The steps may be slightly different in the Mac software.

It's the OCR that is having problems. Make sure you have a good resolution when you scan, with good contrast. Black and white type in a nice typeface is usually 100%, but colored funky type on a colored background is going to have problems.

Ocr folder

The software you need is Abbyy Sprint OCR. If it's not installed, I suggest running the printer setup again, making sure it's selected when you get to the software list. Perhaps you unchecked the box when you ran the installation the first time, or didn't know what it was and uninstalled it from your computer. You may be able to find it by hunting through the CD, but it will probably be easier to run the setup again.

OCR

To scan a document for editing purposes, you will need OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software. OCR software is not included with your model.
OCR software interprets the scanned document for editing purposes. The Epson driver alone only scans documents as image files and is not capable of this interpretation.
Some reputable OCR software programs on the market are:
Omni Page Pro
ABBYY FineReader Pro
Presto! OCR 4.0
Please understand that Epson has NOT tested our products with these programs. They do not know if these programs are TWAIN compliant and will import directly from our scanners. I recommend that you contact these companies for full compatibility information if you are interested.
