English term
you are ready to print!
English to Arabic
Tech/Engineering
Computers (general)
This phrase is from instruction for a fax/scanner/xerox: "If you want to fax and copy without using a computer - you are finished. Stop here." I need to replace "you are finished." with "you are ready to print!" Would you please help me to replace the existed translation with a new one: "يمكنك الآن استخدام خاصيتي الفاكس والنسخ بدون الحاجة إلى استخدام الكمبيوتر. توقف هنا. " Can I replace "يمكنك الآن " with " الآن يمكنك الطباعة" ? If not, please help me to translate this phrase correctly. Thank you in advance for your help.

Stick with the original!
Original:
"إذا كنت تريد نسخ الوثائق و إرسالها بالفاكس من دون الحاجة إلى استخدام الكومبيوتر - فقد وصلت. توقف هنا."
The revised version you kindly had, "you are ready to print!" does not make sense in the context; particularily with the previous sentence.
"استخدام" is also redundant.
Believe me, the Original is pretty catchy :)

انت جاهز للطباعة
but I prefer to use the original one ""If you want to fax and copy without using a computer - you are finished. Stop here." and translate all as " اذا رغبت ان ترسل فاكس او تنسخ بدون استخدام الكمبيوتر، فأنت جاهز، توقف هنا.
