800P TruAlign Time Recorder User Guide
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our time recorder. For safe and proper operation, please carefully read this manual before using the time recorder and save it for reference.
Lathem’s 800P TruAlign Time Recorder is a maintenance-free employee time recorder that uses no ink, ribbon or toner and operates without any loud impact noise to disturb the working environment.
Lathem’s 800P TruAlign Time Recorder features the patented “TruAlign” feature, which helps employees align their timecards to ensure a clear registration at the correct position on the timecard.
The employee places the long edge of the timecard on the timecard shelf of the 800P and aligns the timecard to the cell to be printed. When the timecard is aligned correctly an automatic imprint with the day and time will be recorded on the timecard. The indicator turns green when the printing is complete and the timecard can be removed.
The 800P TruAlign Time Recorder uses the Lathem timecard #E8. The time and date programming is protected by an internal lithium battery
