Press the Insert key to switch to overtype mode and then text that is there will be replaced as you type. You could also just select text you want to replace and just start typing, no matter what mode you are in.

Which software is used to convert a printed text image editable?

Short answer, you can't. To change the text of a printed image you need to scan it in to the computer and use Photoshop or similar (Paint might do it depending on the complexity of the image) to digitally clone or paint over the text and replace it with new text imitating it. For example, when I changed the text for a London Underground roundel digitally for a train lover, I edited out the existing text and used a font that resembled it for the custom text etc.
