Xerox adds instant translator feature to some of its printers
Look, we all know Xerox doesn’t make the most exciting products, but its new Easy Translator Service is pretty cool. So long as you have one of its ConnectKey-enabled multifunction printers, you don’t even have to type out the text you want to translate. Just scan the original document, and the machine will instantly print it out in the language you choose among the 40 available.
In case you don’t have a Xerox multifunction printer, you can use the translator’s iOS or Android (still pending approval) app instead. You simply have to take a photo of the document to receive a translated version in one minute. Or, you can access the service via its web portal, where you can upload a JPEG or a PDF (among other formats) file. You’ll most likely get typical machine-translated results — it uses a machine language AI from a company called “ABBYY Language Solutions” — but it sure sounds like a sweet time-saver, especially in the office.
