Product: Officejet Pro 7740 Wide Format

When I installed this printer on my original PC it came with OCR as part of the software and drivers. Upon installing on my new PC this feature is not provided with the online drivers I have found. I use my printer a lot for OCR work. 

How do I get it back?

I tried links in the discussions, but they are not working.

Go to support.hp.com and search for your printer and then download from the category 3rd party apps "Read Iris Pro". That is the app that comes with the HP printers for OCR.

 

This link may or may not work. If it does not, follow instructions above.

Thanks Repairtrooper.

I am able to download and install the Read Iris Pro. However, when I go to scan with my all in one, scanning to OCR is not shown in the option window. I tried downloading and installing from both options that you gave me. The result is the same. Is there a specific sequence or something I am missing?
