2.0 out of 5 stars Paper difficult to load. Decimal point disappointingly and irritatingly tiny., November 18, 2009

This review is from: Canon PIDHV Printing Calculator (9493A001AC) (Office Product)

I purchased this calculator a week ago at Office Depot. I had a lot of difficulty loading the printer paper (just where exactly am I supposed to insert the paper?...) The most irritating thing for me about this calculator is that the decimal point is very tiny and tends to get lost (and hence very easy to overlook) among the otherwise large and very clear display numerals. Also the Print indicator is much too tiny for my liking.

As for the instructions - they left me wondering what Canon was thinking when they designed the layout of the instructions. The instructions begin with calculation examples, then explain what the different keys are used for. Next is the list of specifications. Then follow instructions for loading and replacing the batteries. At this point, if you're wondering how to load the paper, you'll find them on the backside of the instructions rather than toward the beginning of the instructions where you might logically expect them to be. As for loading the paper, it took me several guesses before I finally figured out exactly where to insert the paper. Otherwise, I basically like the features of the calculator except for, in my honest opinion, the inadequately tiny decimal point.

In summary, the seemingly illogical order in which the instructions are laid out, an unsatisfactory decimal point size, and the unnecessary difficulty in loading the paper detract from an otherwise easy to use compact calculator with a very clear display and a nice printout. In conclusion, I would suggest checking out other calculators before purchasing this one to make sure you're satisfied with all of its features.

The paper tape is difficult to install and the instructions are not a bit clear.

I love this little calculator. No cord to fight. I can use it anywhere. The only problem I have is that I can't figure out how to load the tape. I'll have my grandson do it. He's good at stuff like that. When that gets done, it will be perfect.
