About Sharp EL-1801V Ink Printing Calculator, Fluorescent Display
Overall Feedback:
66% positive
64% liked the compact and durable design
I find this calculator to have a good build quality and it is easy to run with fast fingers, unlike other models.
Older employees will appreciate the large, easy to read buttons.
66% appreciated the quiet operation
The printing mechanism never snags and has low power consumption.
Adding sounds brings back memories of the past and gives a sense of simplicity.
65% appreciated the easy paper loading, though 35% found it jammed frequently
The calculator has a nice tall and easy to read display and can handle standard paper.
The calculator is a good alternative to fancy software and excel sheets.
I had to be patient and make sure to cut the leading edge off when getting the paper into the feed area.
During normal operation, the motor that advances the paper will not stop when I press the total button.

64% praised for its high-quality printing
I have noticed that the calculator uses ink rollers which last longer and have better print quality than ink ribbons, and it is less messy.
The printing mechanism is just the right size, and has low power consumption. It never snags.
I have found that using ink rollers in a calculator provides better print quality and longer-lasting results compared to ink ribbons.
The device works great and has many tips and instructions on how to make the most of its features.
68% found the battery life to be long-lasting, but 32% experienced rapid drain
I used the calculator for just over two years.
I had seen on a past review that it came with very little tape, so I also bought rolls of tape when I bought it.
71% found the interface easy to use, while 29% experienced difficulties
The calculator is comparable to expensive commercial brands but with a much lower price.
This calculator is frustrating as it lacks a dedicated "Clear All" or "CA" key.
