Try this tutorial courtesy of Penn State:

You have to use the document imaging function and this tutorial explains how to do it. Hope this helps.

    Keep in mind you may have to install the document imaging from your office cd before you go thru the tutorial just to let you know.

The lexmark x2650 doesn't have the OCR software in it. I try to scan a document and edit it but can't because no OCR software included

To scan documents for editing and saving as PDF file, you will need to install the Lexmark OCR scan software on your computer. The Lexmark scan software (no downloadable version) is only available on the installation disc that came with your printer. If you lost the disc, please contact Lexmark Technical Support Center for assistance.


To install the OCR scan software from the printer installation CD:

  1. Insert CD into the CD-ROM drive. If the installation screen open, click Cancel.
  2. Double-click on My Computer / Computer.
  3. Right-click on Lexmark XXXX CD and select Open.
  4. Double-click on OCR.
  5. Double-click on Setup.exe to install the OCR software. Your operating system will then determine the language in which it is installed.

Go to the Lexmark website and download the full install for the printer application or run the setup on the CD. "Driver only" installations through Windows Add/Remove Hardware might not add the OCR components.
