Understanding Translation Assistant
Learn more about the Translation Assistant cloud solution.
Translation Assistant is a subscription service offered by Lexmark Cloud Services. This solution allows you to upload a file in a source language and translate it to a target language. You can then download or email the translated file. For Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM) organizations, subscribe to Cloud Print Management to send the translated file to your cloud print queue.
Lexmark also offers the Translation Assistant eSF application. This application lets you scan a document in a source language and translate it to a target language. You can then print or email the translated document. For more information, see the
