I've tried using OCR software for this purpose, and wasn't too satisfied.  If
you have a decent hard copy, the read ends up about 98-99% accurate, which is 
almost useless.  In the end, it ended up being much faster to type DNA 
sequences manually.  Plus, almost all sequences are available somewhere in 
computer-readable format.
