5.0 out of 5 stars Good adding machine with bright luminescent display
Canon P170-DH is a business adding machine with a luminescent display with bright blue digits. I bought it for the display, because it is easier to read than a regular LCD display with black digits with no lighting. This is not a scientfic calculator as described at some websites. P170-DH is a non-scientific business machine with add, subtract, multiply, divide, subtotal,...

3.0 out of 5 stars whatever
Product was not what I expected which was my fault since i didn't examine description closely. I returned the product for exchange which seemed to be a rather cumbersome procedure resulting in 2 phone calls from Acedepot. I did get a RMA from Acedepot and returned the item for exchange a few days later and that is the last I've heard of it. I don't know if they recieved...

This review is from: Canon(R) P170-DH Printing Calculator (Office Product)
Canon P170-DH is a business adding machine with a luminescent display with bright blue digits. I bought it for the display, because it is easier to read than a regular LCD display with black digits with no lighting. This is not a scientfic calculator as described at some websites. P170-DH is a non-scientific business machine with add, subtract, multiply, divide, subtotal, grand total, cost-sell-margin, and percentages. It also does time-of-day subtraction to calculate hours worked, making it the only adding machine in this price range with that feature. The red-black-ribbon printer works fine, but it is not as fast as more expensive adding machines. All adding machines have the same buttons, so I suspect the printer speed is what determines the price. I hope you already know how to use an adding machine (not like a calculator); otherwise the one-sheet instruction paper will not be very helpful. Looking for more help, I downloaded the instructions for similar adding machines from Sharp and Casio. Turns out it is the very same single sheet of instructions. Apparently Canon, Casio, Sharp, all use the same internals for their adding machine, and they drop in the same instruction sheet.

If you want a desktop calculator that's easy to use, has a large, bright display, a selectable two-color printer, and all the usual business features including date and time stamp capability, buy one of these inexpensive little jewels and do your monthly bill-paying in style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Value, Why Pay any More for a Desk Calculator?, June 4, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Canon(R) P170-DH Printing Calculator (Office Product)
I have used the P170-DH at work for over 4 years now. I just bought one for my home bookkeeping service. This is the least expensive of the full sized Canon desktop units with a printer and works just fine. In addition, it has a built-in clock.

I like the feel of Canon calculators and this is just an exceptional one to use.

For less than $18.00 delivered this was a fantastic buy. I have been using this calculator everyday since purchase (3weeks) and have no problems. It is easy to use and has all the functions I need to support my business requirements.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Practical Plethora Of Print-ulating Possibilities!, January 3, 2007
This review is from: Canon(R) P170-DH Printing Calculator (Office Product)
My life changed for the better on the day I added this machine to my desk. No longer do I have to tabulate the incoming checks for the office using an abacus! No longer to I have to scratch the list on a flat stone with a piece of charcoal! The 21st century has arrived, and it IS the Canon P170-DH Printing Calculator!!! Numbers are tabulated in no longer than it takes to hit the * key. The display shows my progress with a pleasant green glow. Big, easy-to-use keys hearken back to those giant learning calculators I used in elementary school, which gives a nice sense of nostalgia while using this product.

When I first opened the box, I thought, "Things are going to be different from now on." They certainly were. The Canon P170-DH Printing Calculator holds a place of honor next to my bright red Swingline stapler.

Summary: Calculator is adequate; does what you expect it to, just a wee bit noisy.

3.0 out of 5 stars whatever, May 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Canon(R) P170-DH Printing Calculator (Office Product)
Product was not what I expected which was my fault since i didn't examine description closely. I returned the product for exchange which seemed to be a rather cumbersome procedure resulting in 2 phone calls from Acedepot. I did get a RMA from Acedepot and returned the item for exchange a few days later and that is the last I've heard of it. I don't know if they recieved the item, credited me with the return, charged a restocking fee, or if I am to get the exchange item that I requested.
All in all, not a very pleasant shopping experience! Since this whole process began in March, I feel there shoud have been some sort of resolution by now.
