No entry edit. - This review is for the compact version EL-1501. I work from home a few days a week and my desk, complete with dual monitors has little space left. I absolutely need a printing calculator as I am prone to inverting numbers. This calculator gets the job done. It’s lightweight, no power cord to get in the way, the readout is big and bright. The readout is easy to read. The secondary “paper” screen needs to be adjusted for best viewing angle though. This functions just like the office calculators I have been using for the last 40 years. The keys are large enough to use comfortably and are not too sensitive. I love the results screen that lets me review my entries. It did take me a minute to figure out how to get back to input mode after reviewing on the upper screen. Forget about trying to read the manual! It’s 1 folded page with instructions in English and Spanish. The type size is about 1/4 of that of a phone book. You’re better off downloading the PDF manual and zooming in. I like this so much I purchased a second one for my desk at the office. Since we are no longer allowed to keep anything on our desks and must clear everything off when we leave, we have to carry everything back and forth in a little caddy and store our stuff in a small locker box. This is small enough and very light so toting back and forth is a breeze. Batteries are rated to last about a year with normal use. There’s also an auto shutoff which helps. One last thing I want to address: It seems that some reviews for the larger version complain about not being able to clear the upper screen. Some have stated that you need to press the tiny reset button while others have listed magical voodoo motions to clear the screen. Not so with the smaller model. All you do is press the “2nd” key followed by the back arrow key and poof! All gone! Plus the keys are right next to each other. Maybe it works differently on the larger model. This calculator is a joy to use. It’s a bit more expensive than the compact printing calculators, but well worth it as there’s no additional ink or paper costs. I just wish it had the edit feature of its bigger brother. Review: Great for Pro Accountants + 300 Entry Electronic Tape - PRO's --- I am most comfortable using my left hand for speedy entries as my right hand is busy on a computer or holding a pen. This calculator works especially well for left hand fast addition for accounting plus so many other functions. The dual LCD is terrific and clear with the upper screen able to record 300 entries and display them in history with forward and back buttons for double checking your work. The keys are comfortable to use and the size and layout is much like older best designs of Sharp Calculators. Cons --- Had a difficult time finding the info about how the 2nd button works as a function key that gives many keys a 2nd function. The instruction sheet is crazy tiny. I downloaded the PDF from the Sharp Website but still found it difficult to find specific details. For instance, it can turn itself off over time if unused but if you want to turn it off you need to hit a combination of the 2nd key and the C key together. That was buried somewhere unexpected in the instructions. Other than that the keys are a little sloppy with movement but accurate with good location feel non-the-less and I might opt for a slight design placement of keys due to my use of older Sharp calculators. Sharp needs to improve their instructions and especially separate the English language page from Spanish. Overall I'm significantly impressed keeping 5 stars for a great Sharp innovative product. ## Features - PRINTING CALCULATOR LOGIC: Operates on printing calculator logic instead of a standard desktop calculator, giving business users a familiar, streamlined way to process calculations. - PAPERLESS SCROLLING DISPLAY: A 12-digit display works together with a 5-line scrolling LCD that stores up to 300 entries, keeping recent calculations organized without added paper waste. - COST, SELL AND MARGIN KEYS: Dedicated cost, sell, and margin keys handle quick profit calculations, alongside decimal, rounding, percent, sign change, backspace, and grand total functions. - COMPACT, PORTABLE BUILD: A cordless design and compact enclosure make it simple to move this calculator from one workspace to the next without searching for an outlet. - TRUSTED BY WORKPLACES FOR DECADES: Sharp has been a dependable name in office calculation for generations — practical tools built around the way people actually work. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07QY4PR7Q | | Best Sellers Rank | #34,206 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #16 in Printing Calculators | | Brand | Sharp | | Calculator Type | Business | | Color | White | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 2,049 Reviews | | Display Type | LCD | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00074000019980 | | Item Dimensions L x W | 8.5"L x 5.75"W | | Item Type Name | EL1501 | | Item Weight | 1.1 pounds | | Manufacturer | Sharp | | Mfr Part Number | EL-1501 | | Model Name | EL-1501 | | Model Number | 8541735555 | | Number of Batteries | 4 AA batteries required.

Years before she had a printing calculator but put that aside. She often has to tally 30 to 40 checks and having a printing calculator can be handy. This seemed like a good compromise and between a printing and non-printing calculator, and I didn't mind spending the extra on it for a good piece of equipment for her. Unfortunately, she didn't like it. Like an adding machine, the + sign must be used at the end of summing instead of the = sign and other quirks with its operation had her frustrated with it. It was nice to have the list of entries and not have the hassle of keeping thermal paper, but it was bigger than she liked and she said she'd rather have a traditional calculator. It also required several batteries that solar calculator don't rely on. I'm giving it to my bookkeeper and will see if she likes it instead of returning it, and got my FDA a large-size, cheaper, no frills calculator that she's much happier with. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sharp El-1501 Compact Cordless Paperless Large 12-Digit Display Desktop Printing Calculator That Utilizes Printing Calculator Logic - Scotch Classic Desktop Tape Dispenser, Black, 1-inch Core, Made from 100% Recycled Plastic, 1 Dispenser - Casio MS-80B Calculator – Desktop Calculator with Tax & Currency Tools | General Purpose | Large Display | Ideal for Home, Office & Everyday Math --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/124646562-sharp-compact-cordless-paperless-business-calculator-12-digit-display-5](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/124646562-sharp-compact-cordless-paperless-business-calculator-12-digit-display-5) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-02*
