I bought this time clock for my small business of 8 employees. It was easy to set up and seems to work great. I like that I can use any timecards with it and not have to buy special, high cost ones. Good quality for the low cost. I would definately recommend this time clock.

We started using this timeclock in June and the employees complained about being able to line up on the right place then after 2 months the time moved ahead 1 hour in the afternoon sometime. And this happened again during our busy season if some of our employees had not written in there times I would have paid everyone overtime for that hour. I called the tech support and they said not to put it near large appliances. Which would have been nice to know ahead of time.

Comments about Lathem® 1500E Atomic Time Clock and Document Stamp:

Although I have only had this machine for three weeks I still like its simplicity. As soon as I plugged it in the atomic time set to with in a few minutes of actual time. I like the window for ease of seeing where you are puching the time card. We also use it for job repair tracking for time.
So far so good.

        Will jump ahead an hour whenever it wants.

        Will them reset to the correct time an hour or so later!!!

        We cannot use an unreliable time clock.

              Comments about Lathem® 1500E Atomic Time Clock and Document Stamp:

              The clock was easy to set up and the size was perfect. However, it was hard to set up the timecard in the right spot to punch the time. You have to look in the clear cover on top of the machine and align your card. I had the men in the warehouse try it out for a few days, and their cards were a mess. Too difficult to use.

              • Q:

                our 1500E Atomic Clock does not print on the cards all the time.
                When it doesn't, it gives a code of E-05. What does this mean, and
                where can I send this to for repairs?

                  Before sending in for pairs, try going to settings and then clicking Master Reset. This will reset the machine.

                  This unit will never need resetting, and keeps time during power outages. There is no indication from Lathem, as to how long the battery will last.

              • Q:

                We need an automatic, electronic date/time stamp for document stamping, for a Corporate legal department. We stamp correspondence, subpoenas and other time-sensitive legal documents. Can this product stamp multiple lines, such as a first line for "Legal Department" and a second line for "Monday, November 28, 2011". And possibly a line for sub-category, such as "Labor Relations" or "Contracts"? Can we see a sample of the stamping to ensure it is large and legible enough for copying, scanning,etc? Please respond as soon as possible. Thank you.
