Sharp EL-1192BL - Electronic Printing Calculator Manual

OPERATIONAL NOTES

To insure trouble-free operation of your SHARP calculator, we recommend the following:

1. The calculator should be kept in areas free fromextreme temperature changes, moisture, and dust.
2. A soft, dry cloth should be used to clean thecalculator. Do not use solvents or a wet cloth.
3. Since this product is not waterproof, do not use it orstore it where fluids, for example water, can splash onto it. Raindrops, water spray, juice, coffee, steam, perspiration, etc. will also cause malfunction.
4. If service should be required, use only a SHARPservicing dealer, a SHARP approved service facility or SHARP repair service.
5. If you pull out the power cord to cut electricitycompletely, the presently stored tax rate will be cleared.

OPERATING CONTROLS

POWER SWITCH; PRINT / ITEM
COUNT MODE SELECTOR:

"OFF":	Power OFF
"•":	Power ON. Set to the non print mode.
"P":	Power ON. Set to the print mode.
"P•IC":	Power ON. Set to the print and item count mode. For addition or subtraction, each time is pressed, 1 is added to the item counter, and each time is pressed, 1 is subtracted. The count is printed when the calculated result is obtained. Pressing of clears the counter.

* The built-in LCD backlight turns on when the calculator's power is on and turns off when the power is off.

Note: The counter has a maximum capacity of 3 digits (up to ±999). If the count exceeds the maximum, the counter will recount from zero.

DECIMAL / ADD MODE SELECTOR:

"3 2 1 0": Presets the number of decimal places in the answer.

"F": The answer is displayed in the floating decimal system.

"A": The decimal point in addition and subtraction entries is automatically positioned to the 2nd digit from the lowest digit of entry number. Use of the add mode permits addition and subtraction of numbers without entry of the decimal point. Use of , and will automatically override the add mode and decimally correct answers will be printed.

	49	59
5/4	0.44 0.44	0.56 0.55

Note: The decimal point floats during successive calculation by the use of or . If the decimal selector is set to "F" then the answer is always rounded down ().

GRAND TOTAL MODE SELECTOR:

"GT": This selector will accumulate the following:
("✱ +" will be printed.)

1. Addition and subtraction totals obtained with .
2. Product and quotient totals obtained with or .
3. Answers obtained with or .

"•": Neutral

PAPER FEED KEY

LAST DIGIT CORRECTION KEY

GRAND TOTAL KEY:
Prints and clears the "GT" memory contents.

NON-ADD / SUBTOTAL KEY:

Non-add –	When this key is pressed right after an entry of a number in the Print mode, the entry is printed on the left-hand side with "#". This key is used to print out numbers not subjects to calculation such as code, date, etc.
Subtotal –	Used to get subtotal(s) of additions and/or subtractions. When pressed following or , the subtotal is printed with "" and the calculation may be continued.

CLEAR/CLEAR ENTRY KEY:
Clear – This key also serves as a clear key for the calculation register and resets an error condition.
Clear entry – When pressed after a number and before a function, clear the number.

TOTAL KEY:
When pressed after or , prints the total of addition and subtraction with "".

EQUAL KEY:
Gives the results of multiplication and division and performs repeat calculations with a constant.

Multiplication:
The calculator will automatically remember the first number entered (the multiplicand) and instruction.

Division:
The calculator will automatically remember the second

CHANGE SIGN KEY:
Changes the algebraic sign of a number (i.e., positive to negative or negative to positive).

MARKUP KEY:
Used to perform mark-ups, percent change and automatic add on/discount.

RECALL AND CLEAR MEMORY KEY

RECALL MEMORY KEY

STORE KEY:
This key is used to store the tax rate.

• A maximum of 4 digits can be stored (decimal point is not counted as a digit).
• Only one rate can be stored. If you enter a new rate, the previous rate will be cleared.

TAX-INCLUDING KEY

PRE-TAX KEY

DISPLAY SYMBOLS

M:	Memory symbol Appears when a number is in the memory.
–:	Minus symbol Appears when a number is negative.
E:	Error symbol Appears when an overflow or other error is detected.
G:	Grand total memory symbol Appears when a number is in the grand total memory.
TAX+:	Tax-including symbol Appears when the total calculated includes tax.
TAX–:	Pre-tax symbol Appears when the total calculated excludes tax.
TAX:	Tax rate symbol Appears when the tax rate is set.

INK ROLLER REPLACEMENT

If printing is blurry even when the ink roller is in the proper position, replace the roller.

Ink roller:
Type EA-781R-BK (Black)
Type EA-781R-RD (Red)

APPLYING INK TO WORN INK ROLLER OR USE OF UNAPPROVED INK ROLLER MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO PRINTER.

1. Set the power switch to OFF.
2. Remove the printer cover. (Fig. 1)
   
3. Remove the ink roller by turning it counterclockwise and pulling it upward. (Fig. 2)
   
4. Install the correct color new ink roller and press it in the correct position. Make sure that the ink roller is securely in place. (Fig. 3)
   
5. Put back the printer cover.

If the print becomes dull after long time usage, clean the printing wheel according to the following procedures:

1. Remove the printer cover and the ink roller.
2. Install the paper roll and feed it until it comes out of the front of the printing mechanism.
3. Put a small brush (like a tooth brush) lightly to the printing wheel and clean it by pressing .
4. Put back the ink roller and the printer cover.

Notes:

• Never attempt to turn the printing belt or restrict its movement while printing. This may cause incorrect printing.
• Do not rotate the printing mechanism manually, this may damage the printer.

PAPER ROLL REPLACEMENT

Never insert paper roll if torn. Doing so will cause paper to jam.

Always cut leading edge with scissors first.

1. Insert the leading edge of the paper roll into the opening. (Fig. 1)
   
2. Turn the power on and feed the paper by pressing . (Fig. 2)
   
3. Lift the attached metal paper holder up and insert the paper roll to the paper holder. (Fig. 3)
   

There are several situations which will cause an overflow or an error condition. When this occurs, "E" will be displayed. The contents of the memory at the time of the error are retained.

If an "" is displayed at the time of the error, "– – – – – – –" will be printed in red and must be used to clear the calculator.

Error conditions:

1. When the integer portion of an answer exceeds 12 digits.
2. When the integer portion of the contents of thememory exceeds 12 digits.
   (Ex. 999999999999 1 )
3. When any number is divided by zero. (Ex. 5 0 )

MARKUP AND MARGIN

Markup and Profit Margin are both ways of calculating percent profit.

• Profit margin is percent profit vs. selling price.
• Markup is percent profit vs. cost.
• Cost is the cost.
• Sell is the selling price.
• GP is the gross profit.
• Mkup is the percent profit based on cost.
• Mrgn is the percent profit based on selling price.

PERCENT CHANGE

• Calculate the dollar difference (a) and the percent change (b) between two yearly sales figures $1,500 in one year and $1,300 in the previous.
