Calculating machines and pocket-size data recording, reproducing and displaying machines with calculating functions; accounting machines, postage-franking machines, ticket-issuing machines and similar, incorporating a calculating device; cash registers

In plain English

This category includes calculating machines, pocket-sized devices that record and display data with calculation capabilities, and various specialized machines like accounting, postage-franking, and ticket-issuing units that contain a calculating function. It also covers cash registers. The items are distinguished by their power source and features, such as whether they are electronic or non-electronic, if they require external power, and whether they include a printing device. Machines with calculating functions that do not fit into the other specific descriptions are grouped separately.
