Beneath is this is the outdated information HP provide, can anyone provide me with a link please?

1. Go to HP Support (www.hp.com/go/support).
2. Click Drivers & Downloads, type the printer name in the search box, and then click Go.
3. Select the printer model from the list of search results.
4. Select an operating system and click Next.

     NOTE:

   You might need to first select the driver language.

5. Follow the step for your printer model:
   • Under the Utility section, locate the Readiris Pro v12 download tool, and then click Download. OR
   • Under the Driver - Product Installation Software section, locate the ...Full software and Drivers option, and then click Download.

       NOTE:

     Use the ReadIRIS Pro for HP (Full install for Windows) option for the M435 model.

I received a privatem message direct from HP saying this is a difficult question to answer and would I phone a number in America. 1. I live in Scotland 2. Why is it difficult to provide a download link? 3. Why PM and not openly publish answer? Can any members help me please?

Hello, @November17 - Greetings!

Thanks for reaching out! I'd like to help 🙂

I understand that you are looking for the OCR software so to edit the scanned document.

First off, the message that you received does not seem to be from an HP technician. It could be from 3rd party support personals or a scam. 

Now, I'd suggest you to use the HP Easy Scan software to have the OCR feature. HP Easy Scan is designed specifically for use with your HP scanner or multifunction printer. With features such as automatic photodetection, multi-page document processing, text recognition (OCR)[1], and PDF file output, HP Easy Scan will help you get the most value from your HP product. 

You can get it here: http://apple.co/2lsPpwU  

Using the HP Easy Scan application, make sure to scan using a Document Profile, after finishing the scan save the file by selecting any of the text file type (RTF, TXT, Searchable PDF). 

Let me know if that helps!

Good luck 🙂
