Have you ever spent a lot of money on translation services just to send out a few documents? Or found yourself unable to help a potential customer because of language barriers or the high cost of translations? Even worse, have you ever had to depend on someone without proper clearance to translate sensitive information, risking your operational security?

According to the Economist Intelligence Unit, 49% of businesses report that language barriers and misunderstandings have led to financial losses. For small businesses, these losses can be particularly tough to handle.

As long-time partners with Xerox, we understand the various printing solutions available that can help boost your office productivity. One of these solutions is Xerox’s Translate & Print app.

In this article, we’ll explain what the Translate & Print app does, how it works, its costs, and whether it might be the right choice for you.

Though some might consider it old-fashioned, many people still prefer taking notes by hand. Not only is it cheap and easy, but it also boosts your ability to learn and remember information better.

Plus, people who type up their notes often write down more words directly from the source, leading to lower-quality notes on average compared to handwritten ones. According to Resarch.com, people who take notes on their laptops transcribe over 14% of information verbatim, whereas people who write notes by hand only transcribe about 8% verbatim.

​ Have you ever printed a stack of papers, only to realize they all need to be stapled and sorted? Suddenly, your quick print job turns into a tedious task. What if your printer could do that for you?

At Strategic Technology Partners of Texas (STPT), we’ve partnered with Xerox for nearly 40 years, helping organizations enhance their workflows with state-of-the-art printing solutions. We understand that the right finishing options can make or break your printing efficiency, especially for schools, offices, or IT departments managing large print volumes.
