Solution

The correct option is D Page reader

Page reader input device is able to scan & interpret an entire page that is typed in a special font.

OCR is an input device used to read a printed text. OCR scans text optically character by character, converts them into a machine readable code and stores the text on the system memory. Bar Code Reader is a device used for reading bar coded data (data in form of light and dark lines).

Optical character recognition (OCR) software works with your scanner to convert printed characters into digital text, allowing you to search for or edit your document in a word processing program.
