WhisperPrint™ Thermal Printing

Patented direct thermal WhisperPrint™ technology eliminates print ribbons for maintenance-free operation. Using Lathem's E8 series time cards the model 2100HD delivers a quiet, perfectly aligned punch on each employee's time card. The 2100HD gives you the options to print the Day of Week or print the Month and Date in a variety of different time formats.

Heavy Duty with Easy to View Display

The 2100HD time clock is made of heavy-duty steel and ABS materials that allow it to withstand harsh environments and high cycle volume use. A large high-contrast LCD displays time and date. The automatic print activation makes for fast and simple one-hand operation.

Tru-Align™ printing

Tru-Align technology senses when the time clock's printer is aligned correctly with the proper space on the time card and only then will it automatically trigger an imprint. This ensures that your employees make the perfect-punch on their time cards every time

Problems with the Lathem 2100HD, and a solid replacement, made in USA:

The Lathem 2100HD had a thermal printer.  Not an ink ribbon printer, no motor, no gears.
They are not repairable, you throw the clock away.
It is sensitive to heat and cold.  The cards erase if they get hot, or stored for long periods of time.
The patented thermal time cards (12 cents per card per week) are unique to this machine.
Normal paper cards cost about 2 cents per employee per week.

The Amano TCX21 clocks are barely affected by heat, humidity, dust, sunlight, or vibration,
and they cost less.  They are made in U.S.A. (not China):  34f to 110f, 0 to 90% humidity.  Amano TCX21's can be repaired.
They also use standard paper time cards, gears, motors, ink ribbons are are repairable:
