        Comments about Cosco® Automatic Numbering Machine:

        I purchased this item to number 2600 pages of paper for a criminal trial. I had to redo numerous pages because the stamp doesn't work well unless you have a pile of paper. Installing the ink pad is messy, the numbers are hard to see and hard to set up.

            Read that it was hard to set up on some of the other reviews. I had no problem at all. Set up easily and worked like a charm numbering 600 test booklets. Only one issue - a bit of smearing on the gears left some ink on the paper. I covered that side with tape and problem disappeared!

              take a box big enough to hold your form. scribe a line around the box 3" from the bottom and cut along your line. on a end on both sides, cut a 1" square; one inch from the side and 6/16" from the bottom - these allow for the pivot. set your numbering machine carefully in the corner, and then push down the lever sharply. occasionally wipe any ink from the bottom and the body of the machine. this should give consistent and sharp numbers. jimsam

              The perfect item for the monthly QA meeting report which runs over 90 pages from different departments. These reports are printed by each dept. and correlated into a pack. I would write page numbers when all the pages are included. This little stamper has helped already, I stamp 1 set and make the copies from there. Saves lots of time.
              One suggestion I would make, The instruction booklet is a little vague in setting up the stamp to print only 3 numbers.It took me a few tries to get it to work. Maybe you could explain it a little bit better, maybe a picture? Other then that, it's great.

                  I apologize, the Cosco Numbering Machine does not have replacement pads that are sold seperately. A whole new unit would have to be purchased.

                  You should do that for each one you wanted to suppress. Remember to set the action indicator on 0- and put the machine into lock position by depressing the handle and pushing the lock button into the shaft.

                  A:

                  You will have to raise the action indicator by disengaging the gears. Move the setting point to the desired position. The figure on the action indicator identify the following movements. 0- Repeat the same number indefinitely. To change the figures, put the machine in lock position by depressing handle by pushing the lock button into the shaft. Use the plastic stylist to move figure wheels.

                I have this stamper and it used to stamp consecutively, i.e., 0001, 0002, etc. However something happened and now it just prints one number each time: 0001, 0001, etc. How do I re-set it to number consecutively?
