The Sharp CE-515P printers (Part II) : European/US version opening the box
The box don’t have the classic PC-1500 peripherals brown look.
It’s the for the next generation, the PC-1600, and have a nice blue color.
The parcel looks strong and the printer seems to be well protected.
The inside part is made of two blocs of polystyrene. The user manual is on the top.
And on the top bloc we discover places for a paper roll and 3 pens sets. Nice idea !
Removing the top bloc… and the big graphic color printer is here with it’s power adapter.
Here are all items included in the box… but the transparent cover is not on the picture.
Next time we will open the printer 🙂
The Sharp CE-515P printers (Part I)
A suit of articles about the Sharp CE-515P printers will begin soon.
Yes i write “printers” !
There are two versions, the Japanese and the European/USA ones.
Packages and power are different.
The Japanese :
The European/USA :
Stay tuned, the last article will be very interesting for some of you…
New in the family : PC-1500 RP !
Do you remember the PC-1500 RP2 found in Brazil ?
This new one is the RP and it’s the same for the printer.
This is a full set with all accessories and manuals. The instruction manual is only a bad copy.
The case is very clean ! And all accessories are present : power adapter, pens, paper, cables…
And the papers too : connector cover for the printer, sticker for name.
And the big surprise is the PC-1500RP 8K memory module. Uh, all seems to be named PC-1500RP…
The case is like the one the the PC-1500RP2 but with two rivets on each side. This makes it stronger.
Differences between the RP and RP2 ? None !
Each time the serials are same for the pocket computer and the printer.

In conclusion i think the RP version is the PC-1500 without memory module (or with 8K) and the RP2 is provided with the 16KB module (Remember the PTA-4000 and PTA-4000+16).
Not much differences but we can consider the two versions.
Now we have 11 PC-1500 versions !
CE-150 cases part IV : a very rare item
This is one very rare item produced only with only 250 produced.
If you own it would you share some pictures here ?
I will be back from holidays in a week…
CE-150 cases part III : a version from France
This one is from the french company UNISABI.
It’s made by strong leather and a red velor interior.
Next time ? A very rare case !
CE-150 cases part II : for specific countries
The classic case exists in two countries Hungary and Brazil.
In Hungary we have two versions for the Hiradastechnika company.
They are very closed to the Sharp but with some differences.
For the PTA-4000 the color is between brown and orange and the plastic fell low-cost.
And the inside zone delimiters are only welded at the bottom, nothing on the sides.
For the PTA-4000+16 it’s the classic brown color
With the same problem for the separators
And here are the two in the same pictures :
For Brazil it a luxurious case, like a jewel case ! My preferred !
There is a special compartment for a memory module.

We all have this accessory with our CE-150 : the case.
