I thought the paperless adding machine couldn't be as good as it sounds. I was wrong. Not only does it keep your line items in memory, but you can scroll back and review your line items for accuracy if something is off. You can also delete or correct a line item that you entered incorrectly. You can also insert a line anywhere in your list. It's easy to read and being able to change the angle of the display will make it work for people of any height. It has the look and feel of a real adding machine because it is. It has all the standard functions of a typical adding machine and more. I didn't realize how much I missed having an adding machine until I got one again. Also, without paper and ink, it does not make a lot of noise like a paper and ink adding machine. This is a game changer in the adding machine field. This is the first model I've seen using digital paper, but I have a feeling we'll see many more models using this technology. The only two negative comments I have are: 1. Clearing the running tape is awkward. You have to hit the down arrow, shift, and then delete twice. And that's not in the instructions. Really weird move. The other is you are limited to 300 line items before it starts overwriting the oldest lines. If you are ever in a position where you find yourself having to add more than 300 numbers in one calculation, this is a problem. I don't have to add that many numbers, so it's not an issue for me. Fifteen years ago it would have been. I highly recommend this adding machine for anyone who makes serious calculations and it's not important to save the tape. If you are worried it won't feel like an adding machine, don't. You'll love the look and feel. And being able to correct one number in a 20 number calculation is amazing.

I ordered this to replace my 10 year old Canon printing calculator that was getting problematic as it didn't always register numbers correctly and I got a lot of errors. I never really used the printing function exception very occasionally, but this non-printing calculator was a great find—I hadn't known it existed before. I've found the digital print screen to be quite useful and you can always see what you've just typed in, which is nice for double checking. I leave the little screen tilted up so I can see the numbers in a running list to confirm, which I really like a lot. There's an easy 3-step process to delete all the numbers on the screen when desired, which I always do when I'm done and about to shut it off. I recommend learning this process (not printed in the manual, unfortunately). Otherwise, it keeps in memory a running list up to 300 entries. The calculator has a slightly smaller footprint than my old Canon model, it weighs a lot less, and it's nice to get rid of the bulky paper roll holder and its weight hanging behind the calculator like with my old one, it turns on instantly (my old Canon took ages to start up), and the keys are easy and comfortable to push. There are a lot of great calculating functions if you bother to learn them all. It seems that Sharp is the only company with a "printing" screen like this. Great invention and very useful for most of us. I'm totally satisfied with this calculator, and would definitely buy it again despite the rather high price. To delete numbers from the screen: Press the "down arrow" button at the top right, then the button that says "2nd" in the top left area, then press the DELETE button (has delete all written above it). Weird series of actions, I can't imagine why Sharp didn't make it a one-step process that made sense!

Excellent. If you need an "ADDING MACHINE" this is for you. If you need a calculator, not so much. 15-20 stars .

Back up battery does not work. Replaced battery, still didn't work.

My extremely old school desktop calculator breathed its last. I wanted a AC powered machine that provided the same features except for the primed tape option. This calculator does everything I needed and has the LCD screen display that efficiently tracks my input. No more paper to throw away. The size is perfect. This isn’t a cheap solar powered toy. Fit, finish and appearance are all strengths. I highly recommend.

Great calculator helps much in numbers at work lot quicker

As required

I'm very happy with this adding machine. Works like a traditional adding machine but without paper and displays entries on a screen for double checking. I don't use the correction feature, but that might come in handy if there are a lot of entries. I have not had any problems with the display or screen like some have mentioned. I also like that it plugs in (no batteries).

Kalkulator nie działa na bateriach. Założyłem nowe, ale nadal się nie włącza. Działa tylko po podłączeniu do prądu. Dlaczego tak się dzieje? Chcę zwrotu pieniędzy.

Sharp kalitesi

Ein wundervoll perfektes Teil, allerdings recht groß

Je recommande!!!!

Buona calcolatrice e ottimo sistema per rivedere dal display le operazioni fatte ed eventualmente correggerle
