I see a Deskjet F4180 but not a Deskjet F1480 at the HP support site. Normally you just use the software to bridge to OCR. No need to set a file extension. You just send the scanned document to Word.

 

Are you sure you have the OCR software installed? This from HP:

If you are using HP Photosmart Essential, the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software might not be installed on your computer. To install the OCR software, you must re-insert the software disk and select OCR under the Custom installation options.

Hi,

 

Following are some of the tips, which you must follow while you are using a printer with Windows 7 system.

 

Ensure that the cables are properly connected; you need to ensure that your printer is properly connected, and plugged in, and also the cable is accurately connected to the computer as well.

 

Check the power; make sure that the printer’s power is switched on, ensure that all the computer necessary computer components are also turned on.

 

Make sure that the hardware is properly plugged in, and also turned on. Apply troubleshooting.

 

A troubleshooter is a tool, which is generated automatically and which can easily fix the problems that occur with your system.

 

Thus, if you are coming across different issues related to your printer, then you can consult the troubleshooter.

 

You require driver applications to run your hardware devices.

 

Make sure that the drivers are not outdated, corrupt, or incompatible, resulting in disrupting the communication between the printer and the computer.

 

Always make sure that you are making use of the most recent and latest device drivers, and also that are compatible with your system requirements and specifications, as this can be extremely useful in resolving printer issues.
